Current ability generates arrows that wasn’t shot, what about this: when a centaur uses its ability it, in a long diameter circle other centaurs join and they arrow barrage the enemy
For me, I feel like the centaurs should just get back their sniper shot ability
Currently, the arrow volley ability is the same as the manticore’s barbed tail spike volley, but the manticore’s attack just hits SO MUCH HARDER.
You have no reason to build centaurs if you research manticores right now.
From what I can see the dev team don’t want insta kill abilities in the game anymore (seeing that they nerfed several myth units such as medusa, or how they changed the focus of the Mummy unit to be more of an area of effect ability), but they should seriously consider letting the centaurs fit back into their original mold of being a mobile sniper cavalry.
Maybe just give them something simple like letting them shoot while moving, (as long as the units they are targeting are within a 270 degree radius of the front of the unit, so that they cannot shoot units directly behind them), but don’t give them a special ability timer.
That is enough of a change to let the centaur fit back into it’s role of a raider unit without making the centaurs into a one shot kill units again.
I like the idea of letting them shoot while moving.
Maybe that’s enough of a bonus and they don’t need a special ability.
It could even be 360° like Magudai in AoE4, they are certainly not OP in that game either.
