How about a mechanic where your string breaks in battle every so often and it takes one minute to repair it?

I can't say if it adds to realism or not, but I'm not really sure how that would be helpful in the least bit. If they add this then they should also add in something where a Gladiator might fumble his/her sword and cause minor damage to themselves. Or a Pugilist drops their knuckles on the ground and needs to retrieve them. Think of it like the Lalafell in the Platinum Mirage that does this. Overall I'm thinking that was more of an attempt at trolling than being constructive.

But to stay on topic, differently colored fletchings as said, perhaps showing three arrows nocked at once when using Trifurcate? We've supposedly drawn two more arrows, why is it we're not showing three loaded at once?

I love the idea of being able to see the arrow trail and also different quiver looks. All in all they need to make bows look more badass rather than being so generic. The only different styles are short bow, long bow, shortbow with feathers, and crab/weevil bow. The variety is awful and needs to be revamped. I'm thinking like some demonic looking bows with different colors and sharp edges and also maybe incorporate the ability not just for archer but for all classes to go to an NPC to change the color of the weapon. Maybe like a 3 color scheme or something, anything to customize and make variety would be nice.

I just think theres more to focus on right now than stupid animations thats all

Your mistake is thinking the team working on content and the team working on UI, art and SFX are the same.

+1 to the OP, a lot of good ideas.

Personally, before all else, I would really appreciate a change to either the Skull Sunder or Bloodletter enfeeb icon. I don't care which as long as we can differentiate.

ARC is gonna get hit with the nerf bat either in 1.19, 1.20 or 1.21 and your love for it will be shaken if not distroyed

Why must everyone be so negative? Is there some hate for archers I'm missing? I for one don't play it because of the power, I genuinely enjoy archer as it is because it's fun to play. Since the changes I actually find myself not attacking as frequently and I'm starting to enjoy the faster pace that Pugilist brings. I won't deny maybe archer is a little overpowered but this thread isn't asking for ways to buff the class even further, these are all cosmetic changes we wanna see. I know it's off topic a little, but I hope that all the classes see some much needed cosmetic improvements.

But in due time of course, right now the improvements on the battle, terrain, content, etc. comes first.

I wouldn't count on it. As much as I'd love to see ammo become infinite and archers having lower DPS than melees as a trade off for being able to attack from a safe distance I seriously doubt it will happen.
