What ranged attack to you plan to focus on, if you plan to use more then 1 then pick the one you will use the most.

From what I've read archery seems interesting. But I'm also going to learn at least the fireball spell, and use it as element of surprise. :D
Also, I don't remember crossbows being in.

Bow will be my primary weapon.

I'll use mainly melee, so it will probably be easier for me to throw something than switch to a bow and back

I concur. A bit of magic also, but primarily Arrows.

Crossbow all the way! Maybe I will consider a throwing weapon or a bow as well but as things stand right now, the crossbow will be my weapon ;-)

I remember old lore saying alfars use mini hand held crossbows, could be thinking of another game so dont quote me on this.
Bow + arrow will be my main weapon, poisened tips if the game allows

Though you wouldn't be doing much of the walking then.
For me, Crossbow for sure.

I've always liked different thrown weapons ( such as throwing-knifes,axes and javelins ), so I'm probably going to carry some of those on me :D

6. What can you tell us about thrown weapons in Darkfall?
Here's an example of a thrown weapon: the thrown potions: they can stun, blind, explode and cause damage, create smoke or fog screens etc. The effort is to make thrown weapons fun and effective (if you're good), and not just some gimped skill that you can't really use in combat.

Crossbow.
Quick and easy way to dispatch my enemies that decide they want to try and run.
I'm gonna use the one that goes:
poff poff biong wang TWING!
that one.

Pinball machine? That certainly is going to hurt if you can throw it far enough.

I might play a dwarf, if this happens, I will try to use THROWING AXES, because there's no such thing more badass than an axe-throwing dwarf.

Either bow, or crossbow.

I'm looking forward to potchucking, not sure how effective it will be though so that's subject to change. If it's viable though I think being a potion chucking alchemist would be pretty neat.

I think I'd use a bow, however, throwing weapons (the potions especially) sound more useful in a general strategy sense.
(Unless of course you can do the same stuff with arrows, which I don't think you can.)

Bow for the win. When you think about it it has good damage dealing properities, quick rate of fire if it follows other FPS bow systems, and you can poison/flame arrows.
If I'm using ranged I want to either set that sucker on fire or poison him so I get an advantage. Sure you can do the same with crossbows but those take longer to reload and whatnot. Throwing weapons are fun though as well because if you aim right you get to see the corpse of your opponent wit a knife between the eyes or in the heart, always satisfying.

Magic.
I'll be throwing spears, or maybe potions if they are better. I don't like the idea of throwing potions at people though.
