The 'NEW' Archer Tower sucks at defense!

Was watching a replay of a TH snipe on my base - 11 archers.
Four of them were in range of my maxed AT.

My Level 13 AT used 12 shots to take out four level 5 archers - TWELVE!

So apparently it sends out two more arrows at the already dead archer before re-targeting :confused:

Well... the other 7 archers were out of range and took out the TH.
When they approached the AT and the also maxed cannon, 12 more AT shots were fired and 6 Cannon shots to take them out!?!?
But they were not killing 18 archers... only 7.

Barch on my friends.... if anything it must be easier now :mad:

The arrow flies at the same rate--pre-update at long ranges, a 2nd shot was fired before the 1st reached its target. Now, a 3rd shot can be fired before the 1st gets there.

I haven't noticed any increase in difficulty of BArching post update.
