ehh im bored and i thought i could share some archer kit tips

1) Don't Bowspam unless theres only a few people left
i know you might be think "Oh i can definetly kill this dude" or something similar. But it's not worth wasting a ton of arrows on one person. Especially when you might need them later

2) Don't Waste Arrows.
again, similar to above. But, again, don't waste your arrows shooting at one person. If you keep missing a shot. Stop. Its not worth wasting all those arrows. Only shoot when you know you can kill them. Like if they are building or standing near the edge of an island. Its not worth wasting arrows especially cuz you've only got 16 of them.

3) Use your reach advantage.
if you are fighting someone and think you might lose, use your bow and shoot them. Especially if they dont have a bow, it can really give you an advantage. Also great for pushing campers into the void.

4) Pillar
i don't really recommend this cuz its a bit nooby, but i tend to use this on the desert map cuz i suck at pvp. If you pillar up 10 blocks and shoot at people with low health or running near the edge, its can get you some kills.

5) Archer v Archer
if your fighting another archer build a 2x3 wall (2 long, 3 high) and build a wall behind you if your on a small island so you dont get knocked off) move side to side and shoot at the person. Moving side to side (also vary where you come out, its better to be unpredictable). You can get free arrows that way and when your opponent runs out of arrows, wel RIP them.

6) Kill Speed Bridgers
if its the beginning of the game and you see someone speed bridging, dont be afraid to shoot at them. When people are moving fast its hard for them to stop suddenly. Shoot ahead of the moving person and you might knock them off. This does take a bit of skill and practice.

oof and with practice you can predict da moves of your opponent

some of you might disagree with these. this is just what i do and i thought i could share some tips so... yea ig

Very useful :)
Its also helpful if you practice in a private world but however make it laggy to simulate the conditions of lag in Brokenlens.
For the archer 1v1 i'd suggest using some german engineering and use a gap in a stair to shoot at your opponent.

another thing is that if you are bad at aiming just practice a lot i have a survival world that has dispensers full of zombie eggs which are hooked up to redstone so i can stand 50 blocks away and shoot them XD

7) Good aim
8) play smart

8)Most of the time when im behind cover, some archers still try to shoot me which makes them bad ( just saying)
7) like about 45% of people who use archer cannot aim for.
