Definitely too strong stats.

Range is not increased by first upgrade, so 2nd shouldn't touch it too.
There is also no real reason for spell resistance.

Most importantly however is that longbowman doesn't really need another upgrade right now - there is a ton of units that needs it more.

Despite being new I believe it should have like 1/1 or 1/0 armour, because the Man at Arms does. Perhaps more HP as well. Other than that it looks like a solid unit. Although perhaps Master Longbowman would be a better name, like Master Skirmishers.

Longbowman are support troops,giving assistance to melee troops in the frontline.
It wouldn't make sense to give long ranged troops armor when they can be away from the enemy.
Man at arms is a medium foot melee which is originally placed in the battleground and 1/0 armor suits it as it is the 3rd and strongest tier of the swordsman.
Professional,expert and sharpshooter named would be Also nice.
Deadeye means also a sharpshooter.
The deadeye already has 1+ range,sight & damage.
I might need to decrease damage to 8
For balancing purposes I think.

No ranged unit (apart of some siege machines) can ever have more than 9 range.
As longbowman is affected by archery upgrades - he can't have 8.
Besides longbowman really doesn't need another upgrade. It's strong enough with that one.

long bow man would need upgrade when (and if) other infantry gets upgrade like samurai, zweihander, axe thrower etc.

I would want just a recurved bow with that range than longbow as recurved bow has more range than any longbows.

Merged Topics.

if the focus of the upgrade is more to increase your vitality and armor instead of distance?

Honestly i dont want longbowman better health or armor, cuz due to siege tower it is already very difficult to kill longbowman and healers

B4? What do you mean?

B4 = before shortcut

Oh right,but anyway,about longbowman 3rd tier,e just think abou he are more resistance

But in the future he can be accept?

One thing we can do is reduce dmg of 2nd tier longbowman to 7, so the 3rd tier will have the current 8 atk
