Special Arrows

[captain1z]

Arrows Of the medusa - Flesh to stone save on impact

Arrows Of Dragon fury - delayed blast fire ball on impact (because it might be easier to program than fireball)

Arrows of web - cast on the target on impact




just a random broken thought

[chemonz]

Great idea, would love to see arrows like these.

And....

How about Death Arrows (fort save or die DC 12)??

The DC would be low enough to make them like a vorpal effect, at least on higher content, only a 5% chance for death.

[Ringos]

We have slaying arrows, although those are for specific races. It would be cool to see more arrow types in the game...and quivers!

[Fetchi]

This would be great to do - I'm suprised this isn't coming with arcane archer builds. You should be able to add spells to your arrows if you are an arcane archer - not just increase the +1 +2 +3 ect - heck - House D can do that.

[Elliott777]

Alot of potential cool arrows out there. I know that I was hoping for more out of the Arcane Archer build than +1, +2, etc. But who knows maybe they will add some way to put spells to arrows in the future. Kinda wish that arrows would drop in bigger bunches than 20 as well. Seems like it takes up way too much inventory space to keep a bunch of cool arrows at hand.

slightly off the spell arrow topic, but how about the blunt arrows/bolts so ranged specialised toons can actually hit skellies etc properly?
these are a pencil and paper item thats easy to get as normal arrows... another thing house d favor could give, the first level of it...

and give us quivers!! :P
i hate having that many arrows taking up loot room in my inventory lol

Transmuting bows ftw. I run a transmuting repeater of pure good with flame arrows in all undead quests... three red numbers.

we have arrows that can pass skellie DR. you can get them in house D after the first tier of favor.

Quivers.. been brought up many times. dont think we ever got a dev response about it.

[McGraham]

We got arrows.

I would love a couple quivers though. I'm tired of my ammo taking up my loot slots.

Huh? There's no bludgeon or transmuting arrows with House D favor...

Theres ada. doesnt that get through?

Nope. Skeletons are DR/bludgeon (& ghostly skeletons in Delera's are DR/Good).

[Benjai]

Really what would be nice would be more arrows per drop, 20 is a joke, not even worth inventory space. However a stack of 100 with 50% returning would be nice. That'd be like 1/4th or 1/3rd of a difficult quest.

The only problem is that blunt arrows in PnP only inflict non-lethal damage. Given that undead are usually immune to non-lethal damage, they wouldn't be of much use. Infact, since there is no non-lethal damage in DDO, they wouldn't be of much use at all.

[vainangel]

I think there are enough special arrows in the game.

Acid, Fire, Cold....yeah Then the Bane arrows.

Not only that but can't casters do some cool stuff with arrows?

[Kire]

Nope. Skeletons are DR/bludgeon (& ghostly skeletons in Delera's are DR/Good).

ah i usually use a +1 holy heavy mace in there on any lowbie.
