Kev redid the tests for accuracy, I am only analyzing normal bow, booster and strafe (not that it matters), and normal xbow booster and strafe.

Here are my results using various methods (both are 30 seconds clips):

Arrows shot in 30 seconds:
bow-40
xbow-42

Frame by frame analysis: *I'm really not trusting this one, with strafe its difficult to measure one attack to the next
bow- .73~.74 (82~81 spm)
xbow- .73~.74 (82~81 spm)

Audio Peak to Peak analysis:
Bow - .76 (79 spm)
Xbow - .72 (82 spm

Beats per second interpreter analysis (different program then peak to peak)
Bow -
Xbow -

From my peak to peak analysis, it shows a clear indication of them starting very similar, only to have the xbow go faster O_o

You can clearly see that the xbow has a full shot over the bow in that 30 second clip

I am 100% positive that I did not mix up the tracks (as the xbow has a distinctive "poot" sound after it, while the bow is a "feew")

All the tests but the frame-by-frame agree, xbow speed is 82 spm (as always), while bow speed is now apparently 80 spm.

WTF!

Gentlemen, we are now officially in bizarre-o world.

I don't know whether to make heads or tails over this, should we redo math, why would nexon do this, did they feel BM was more powerful then MM?

Rawr *confused*
