Re: Different sights set-up
Since they gave the snakebite bug report a ticket-number (or whatever you want to call the number in the squared brackets),
we can assume that it is in fact zeroed in at the wrong distance.

Re: Different sights set-up
Further evidence to show that the bow is not calibrated to 20m:
1: One shot at 20m . Head shot missed
2: same shot at 20m, but pointing as if to 30m

Re: Different sights set-up
(At least) the Longbow sights have changed (i.e. are completely messed up) after the "29.08.14" update.
These are my preliminary observations:

Re: Different sights set-up
Meista, that looks good. I added 30 & 40m lines. (after about 40 shots at the range).
It would be good if a few people could verify, because my longbow skill is still pretty low.

It's "Tod", with one bloody 'd'!

Re: Different sights set-up
Someone in another thread mentioned, that the lines might be a tiny bit too high. he might be right, at least for the 20-40m marks.
i'm at level 7, so there's still a fair amount of wobble, as well.

Re: Different sights set-up
FYI. Looks like now both the longbow and crossbow without site are way off from the OP.

Re: Different sights set-up
Learned this the hard way during the holiday competition were you needed to shoot a coyote with the Longbow. Missed all my shots except one bad body shot. Went back to the range and found out that you need to aim A LOT lower now. Very bumped about this, especially after I have a video on my channel explaining how easy shots are over 20-25 meters. If you watch that and then go and try what you saw, you will be very confused at least.Deconstructed wrote:FYI. Looks like now both the longbow and crossbow without site are way off from the OP.
