Combat for animals is extremely repetitive, and wayyy too easy.
Can kill most of the animals with just 30mc and a horse, or even less sometimes.

Using a bow on the animals decreases their Q based on the Q arrow you shoot at it, etc.
Also there are so many huge factions just botting everything and you'll never be able to defend yourself if you run into them. Also, doesn't help that the combat gives a huge advantage to numbers as you have to stop in order to drink and keep running.

There's so many things wrong and unbalanced about the new game compared to the old game, especially when it comes to combat. IMO they really just ruined combat and should have just left it how it was, but archers did need a slight boost from previous worlds/old haven.
Don't even get me started on how retarded the siege mechanics are too. lol
