[Archery] Embarrassing question.

[Prime.]

Does DCI work for Archers in PvP? I see a little mixture of both, archers that have a lot and archers that don't have any, not even the 5% quiver. I was told it does and doesn't by a few people, and just wasn't very sure.

Yes.

HCI works off of Swords, Fencing, Macing, Archery, Throwing, Wrestling & Mage Weapons.

DCI works off of Swords, Fencing, Macing, Archery, Throwing, Wrestling, Defensive Wrestling & Mage Weapons.

How though? i don't understand how hit chance works vs archers.

I can understand chance to hit/defend vs wrestle, fence, swords, throwing and mace but not archery as i presumed it had no melee element?

if an archer and swordsman both are 120, do they have a 50% chance to hit each other? If so melee seems a bit underpowered or archery overpowered?
If this is true i could tank with an archer and high DCI, just the same as a samurai with no parry? Bonkers!

Please can someobe resolve this with some nice examples and numbers?

All weapon skills (except Defensive Wrestle) have a base chance to hit and a base chanse to dodge, HCI & DCI properties are extensions off of that base chance. Defensive Wrestle only has the dodge part so DCI still works but HCI doesn't.

Yes. Then after that HCI/DCI/HLA/HLD are factored in.
