well things tend to burn when you put them on fire, did you expect something different from a WOOD ship with CLOTH sails?

Anyone who doesnt think fire arrows are brokenly OP simply hasnt done enough PvP.

They are so multi purpose too. If someone lights up the deck of your sloop with a few fire arrows it will not only kill everyone onboard but also break the beds so that they cant respawn. You can kill sleeping people through walls with them. You can break doors and hatches with them. The funny part is when you light someone on fire and they run into the rest of their team then they are all on fire.

It is straight up dumb. Especially when firearms are so useless and will just ping off armor, why should bow and arrow be far superior? Literally just forces you to abandon ship if someone gets on your deck with fire arrows.

If we're talking about realism here then

a) fire arrows are barely viable in reality, like 1 arrow out of 50 will actually put anything on fire

b) you can't just pick a "fire" arrow from your quiver, shoot it, and burn stuff with it, even at that horrible success rate. You need to light it with something. So you need time to light the arrow, and something to light it with (and you don't have a modern lighter to do that).

So if you have done so much PVP you will know when a superior force comes along and you do not own boats or cannons that is the last line of defence to prevent being totally rolled. All the cannoneers need to do is use superior range with cannons or carbines to take out swimmers , defenders.

Crying for a further nerf to leave will leave small tribes totally defenceless , the bow is absolutely waste of points , it does 2 damage to plate wearers so fire arrows are needed to kill animals ,defend bases removing them would break the game. Lear to sail or shoot

I'm not saying fire arrows cant be strong but they are way too OP atm. It makes all other weapons pointless. It makes killing alphas a piece of cake. Kills through walls, destroys objects and doors etc.

Fun PvP meta. 

Strongest play atm is just running around naked with Fire arrows. 

Bring a lvl 100 Wolf? Oh, 2 fire arrows is enough

Bring a Dragon? Oh, 3 fire arrows will do. 

Gear up in Legendary plate. pffff, that will be 2 Fire arrows.
