I think it's pretty self explanatory. Higher damage than bone of course because it's a nonrenewable resource and quite a bit harder to get
1 nugget of hard metal+branches=a few arrows, as you're hammering it onto the stick and don't need string

Re: Metal Arrows
They could pierce armor a little too. Though with the current metal quality this might be a little op.

Re: Metal Arrows
That would be nice, but I think we should probably get the damage model right first.

Re: Metal Arrows
What's your vision for archery's place in PvP? Historically its been either OP or useless. Just changing the damage numbers isn't going to fix that.jorb wrote:That would be nice, but I think we should probably get the damage model right first.

Re: Metal Arrows
Archery is currently pretty useless. Except if your enemy is afking or something. Somekind of archery towers would be cool. They would give you advantages to shooting so you can actually hit enemis. They would be built inside walls so you can shoot peoples asses if theyre sieging you.

Re: Metal Arrows
They really don't do any more damage I think the true value of metal tips is the fact they pierce armor easier and thus do more damage that way.
