Anyone still using one after the ranged rounds change? Is it useful at all?

I think simply the decay factor could become 25% for a good fix. Any ideas?

EH can use a buff. The benefit it brings now is just... tiny. The reduced decay sounds good.

Also have it block GA if used by a mage.

What I really can't get is why the Market value of these things are still so high...

It's still good for Fireball.

"I think simply the decay factor could become 25% for a good fix. Any ideas?"

I strongly agree. I'd like to see any change that isn't another "Bob's strategy nerf" at this point.

Wow, you use three of them? Ouch.

The only way I could see a use now is on a Single archer, who ends the battle in four rounds or so. With the extra ranged rounds they became much, worse, and they weren't all that great to begin with, except that they can go on Enchanters.

If the decay is 35% then after 6 rounds of ranged you have 7.5% of the original defense. After 4 ranged rounds before you had 6% of the original. I think they could sort of use a buff too, but maybe not because they can go on enchanters. I guess we'll see what happens during Change Week.

I was using the EH MgS combo for a MM wall for a while. worked pretty good.

yea the elven hauberk has become pretty much useless if your a archer it would be better to use something else, like a tat.
