There have been numerous posts about the problems with ranged weapons, ranged combat and ranged weapon crafting. Yet, there is defeaning silence from you dev's as to how you are going to tweak/fix ranged weapons. If you have stated your plans for ranged weapons...can you point me to the link because I can't find any.

Why the silence? Do you not agree that it needs fixing...are you satified with ranged weapon skills and combat as they stand? Or, have you not developed plans for addressing ranged weapons?

Would really love to know...

I don't think this will get them to talk.

Looking at the postcount of the average member (i.e. you) and the community reps like Cerest I think it is hardly fair to call them "silent".

Ranged combat is but one of many things it would be nice to have comments on. However, realistically we can only expect responses so fast.

remember, on forums - the squeaky wheel get the "ignore poster"

you gotta be patient. there are plenty of other real bugs to fix.

There are bugs with ranged weapons. Even if they were fixed the skill would still need work but that doesnt mean that it isnt bugged.

There are bugs and balance issues to go around. Everything is going to have to take a turn and wait for that turn.

Hell i've been playing Asherons Call since 2000m they still have blanace issues and problems with ranged weapons especially.

There is a nasty bug going around at the moment where archers can "machine gun" other PK players within about 2 seconds!

It could take quite some time to fix these things.
