Beasty civ tier list. Beasty mentions poison arrows don’t stack beyond 8 arrows. This makes a huge difference when focussing down armoured targets.
Example: if 20 archers shoot the same target simultaneously, it only takes 24 dmg from poison instead of 60.
Malians will likely still need a buff after this, but I think even just that fix, along with stealth fix, will help
i think thats a right decision otherwise they would destroy everthing in high numbers and i think malians need a buff for castle age and beyond because they dont have tanky unit like man at arms,like they can icrease the health of musofadi warrior also their javelin thrower needs to attack faster
Yeah those definitely need buffs, but currently poison arrows no where near justify the cost, neither is it intuitive that there’s a limit to the poison.
But either way, don’t take my word for it, the pros are complaining as well. It’s likely going to change due to pressure from them
