[QUOTE="Sacrosanct, post: 7715741, member: 15700"] No, but if you did watch them, then why would you continue to repeat false claims that are directly contradicted in the videos? Just to troll everyone and waste our time? I never said you couldn't be skeptical, but the things you are claiming are irrefutably addressed in those videos. I.e., it doesn't matter who Lars is, the video evidence clearly shows arrows easily penetrating chain mail armor at a rapid fire rate. They all clearly show how someone can fire accurately and quickly with a bow. There is no denying that. And in the last video, they explicitly state who Lajos is, and his credibility. So either you did not watch them and are lying, or you did and didn't pay any attention, or you did and you keep repeating claims that are false and were disproved in those videos just to waste our time. Either way, it doesn't paint you in the most positive light. Also, while competitive shooting bows are a lighter draw weight than war bows, they are about the same as hunting bows, so any comments (not just from you) that states they wouldn't do much damage are blatantly inaccurate. Additionally, if a PC in D&D can be stronger than an ogre, then having a 100# draw weight would be insignificant to the rate of accurate fire compared to the woman in that second video did with the 40# bow she had. But again, you're missing the point completely. In D&D, melee attack rolls encompass many strikes, and ranges weapons only count as one. Therefore, it's entirely reasonable that in the context of initiative, a ranged weapon would be faster than a melee weapon [/QUOTE]
