You&#039;ll still have plenty of examples where someone can hang back at missile range forever, shooting off a billion arrows and single-handedly destroying every last lifeform in the realms.<br /> <br /> Despite this some changes had to be made, so retreat was given a small (but stacking) OF penalty. This allows you to either stand at melee and shoot your bow at people, or periodically retreat while incurring a to-hit penalty.<br /> <br /> I would like to see Hangback become an ability where you can avoid contact with critters for a short time, with a cooldown. It would be less useful against players in order to keep PvP fair and competitive. Changes to Hangback and engagement in general will wait until 3.0 is out and we have more feedback on the system.<br /> |sub=Combat 3.0,DragonRealms 3.0<br /> }}</div>
