Multi was implemented and it made possible for archer to lvl tt in vd, ac drop debuff not and i think no one is not even thinking/working about it... damage increase was rejected because of the large gain from distant rares, but you could increase archer ex damage by 10% to compensate lack of ac.
Still problem is that archer does not have variety of combat skills compared to thief/warrior .. one possibility is to make darkness tree availeble for archer without discarding fire skills - could get slow,poison, tybern.
Rigth now archer caps all useful combat skills quite fast and at higher lvl has alot of spare cs points.
Faster double ex is probably the stupidest thing i have heard, it is actually better for thief to hit full double ex thanks to increased movement to get in close range with the opponent faster after the normalt shot. Ex speed by 100 dex difference is nonexistent
