    It probably means that they adjusted how and when NPC archers will distance themselves from you to get a better shot.

    Doesn't say NPC archers, it says "ranged archers".
    Another reason for some clarification from the dev's.........;)

    It's a fix to allow enemy archers to slide back slightly when you are right in front of them so that their outstretched bow doesn't intersect the player.

    @matpsch
    Thanks for your response !

    When you say "intersect the player", do you mean just the "visual" effect or are there "mechanics" involved (ie. hit/miss/etc.) ?

    Just visually. I don't think any accuracy or damage calculations are changed. It just keeps the characters from aesthetically being inside of each other.
