    The Archer is missing 3 NS ranged scopes.

    The 6x scope & the two 3.4x scopes.


    List of NS scopes the Archer currently has access to:

    • 4x(Tetra, default scope on the Archer)
    • 4x(Quadra)
    • 7x(Hepta)
    • 8x(Octal)
    • 10x(Deca)
    • 12x(DoDec)
    List of NS scopes that should be ADDED to the Archer:
    • 3.4x(NiSGO
    • 3.4x(LANS)
    • 6x(HeXO)
    • Up x 5

    A change to the Archer that most people can agree on.

    Agreed. 3.4x scopes are always nice.

    Yeah its a simple & reasonable change.

    Wasn't this already a thread?

    Who can't hit targets with a x4 scope???

    I get headshots with the TSAR-42 easily enough at range...

    Judging from his recent posts, Scr1nRusher seems to have picked up the Archer recently. I don't think its about not being able to hit targets with a 4x. We just like 3.4x scopes.

    Yes but other parts of this suggestion that was in that thread are highly debatable. He made a thread to discuss this one point alone which is both rational and intelligent (the making of this suggestion thread -- not just his suggestion which is also both rational and intelligent.) I agree with your suggestion 100%.

    simple questions:
    1. whats the purpose of the archer?
    - it was created to be an anti-max rifle.
    2. where do most Max encounters take place?
    - short to midrange

    --> so i think the Archer should have access to 1x - 6x scopes to fulfill its intended role as its meant to be. 4x scopes for close ranges are suboptimal. 1x-6x would be perfect because with 1x its easy to fight in cqc and 6x is capable to get maxes even over long ranges.

    Exactly.

    That other thread ran its course.

    But this balance change to the archer(adding more scope options) is something we all can agree on.

    Funnily enough, I've always wanted iron sights for the Archer. I want to pretend to be a big game hunter with my elephant rifle.
