I get where he is trying to go with this, but lets face it, this is just "Hollywood" being redone to fit his taste.Â
No archer, in a combat situation is going to partially run sideways up a tree before firing.
Not to mention, that the firing of 3+ arrows at once cause it's penetrating power by atleast 35%. So unless your opponent was standing within 10 feet of you, but naked, the arrows would not pierce thru much.
If you are using these techniques forecourt roleplay or other fantasy type interaction, then this would help spice up a fairly weak melee range class. In real life however, it's just not practical.
Now, I'm not a pro archer (tho info have some experience) so this is not based on solid facts, it's just my thoughts on the matter.
