This should be sticky thread. Good job Rector

P.S. you can add to your collection that relics do not affect archery.

Wait, seriously? Why isn't there a bug report?

Seyha, I will let you do the bug report. Make lvl 5 archers in all realms, and run tests with similar bow on lvl 5 test dummy. You should see that there isnt any difference. Make sure you screen-shot the test results.

Rector, another archery bug for your list:
Damage add buffs do as much damage as if archer was shooting with 1h weapon, not with a bow. With a bow dammadd buffs should add more damage, because bow is a 2h weapon.

AoG works correct. For other damage adds you are right.

still missing: arrows weight is double what it should be

All archer classes need at least some love on this server, but pretty sure that Nixian will lock this topic if more archers ask to fix bugs

hunter is a lot bugged on this server imho, i have one level 21 and don't think i level up

Did they fix the BC charm spells yet ?
Seems I still only have 1 charm on my hunter it should always have 2 charms. or can the controll insect spell tame animals as well ?
