Re: Archer Improvement Thread.
Speaking of which, could we get some code that removes the base damage bonus of the monster from ranged attacks?
It doesn't really make sense(Sure, I can buy that a Bone Giant has a natural offensive bonus, and even buy that it augments a twohander, but a bow is a lot more questionable. Not entirely unbelievable, but questionable.), and unless you're spoiled, it can catch you off guard badly. It's dangerous enough for melee rares, but Archer rares end up with some really silly ranged damage out of it, often entirely out of proportion to the place and time they're found.
Given that they're getting buffed, it'd be a good time to finally change that.

That does explain how that one Red Drake Archer was kicking my ass all over the Daikara.
Re: Archer Improvement Thread.
It does make sense, but apparently it's not accurate, after getting info on exactly how to test from DarkGod.
I'm not sure what's going on(if anything? But I've certainly noticed out of place figures...), but it's not that.
Wish I could figure it out...oh well.
