OK I just noticed something funny and wonder if any one else did.  Currently playing Hotu, and recently downloaded latest Prc - well a couple weeks ago - I think its 3.3.  Anyhow.  I made an Athasian Elf Rogue/Sorceror/Arcane Archer.  I was enjoying this class until I realized for some reason whenever he equips a bow, his movement speed is reduced.  Are other races like that?  I don't think they are.  For real, with his Athasian Elf movement rate of 40, while hasted, he really moves.  But as soon as a bow is equipped the movement speed drops quite a bit - like maybe by half?.  Kind of annoying for an arcane archer!  Has anyone else noticed this?

OK so at least one other race does this as will, the Forestlord Elf.  What gives?  Why should my character move slower just because he has a bow equipped?  Again, the effect is that when hasted, equipping a bow will substantially reduce the character's movement rate.
