Questions Regarding Archers

JayJrod

1: Will all bows and crossbows be tab targeted or do you have to aim all of your shots?
2: Will headshots be implemented for extra damage?
3: During the gameplay footage of the siege taking place, the player was shooting at enemies ~50 feet away. What is the maximum range for archers?

These are all good questions. I would also like to know if critical damage shots on weak spots (depending on creature type) would also be a factor?!

I think they said single target spells were tab target and AOE spells were not. I expect arrows to work the same way

1: They are both action and tab. You can take 75% action skills or 75% tab skills, or any combination that caps at 75% of one and 25% of the other

2: No, those were cancelled afte APOC testing

3: We do not have that yet

No, there are AOE spells that are tab and there are aoe spells that are action. Ground placement spells count as action. AOE based off your character count as action. But there are tab spells that affect x people near the target
