Metal Arrows

Post by abt79 »

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


Because we shouldn't still be shooting pieces of splintery bones in the iron age

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

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

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.

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.

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.
