What happened to unlimited arrows?
There used to be unlimited arrows on the game, meaning if you bought 1 arrow it would last you forever. Now whenever I play I actually have to buy a large number of arrows because I run out. It wasn't like this until today.
That the arrows didn't decrease was a bug that was fixed today. Did you really thought it was supposed to be that way?

You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

Yes, and as a matter of fact I thought it was better and unique to not make the players constantly have to buy more arrows. Remember Zelda? The NES version...same concept.Crush wrote:That the arrows didn't decrease was a bug that was fixed today. Did you really thought it was supposed to be that way?
I was thinking that maybe there could be a bow that had unlimited arrow supply, where you don't need to equip any kind of arrows because it can shoot its own kind of arrows. This bow of course would need to have a negative effect to it, so it could be that the bow (after using it over time) wears down and would eventually need to be repaired for a sum of gold (probably a kind of expensive sum) and it would be as good as new once repaired. This will save people from having to go buy more arrows every 20 minutes but will still have a negative effect on them.
A ranged weapon that does not consume arrows is currently possible. But that one would have to be based on Str, not on Dex.

How do you want to explain this?
Do you use coins as your arrow tips?
Is there a little shopkeeper in your quiver who charges you for every arrow you take out of it?

I like this idea, you buy as you use, no money no arrows...but never bother buying arrows again, just get money, also the weight could be static (I mean The weight of the arrows it would be constant because there is not 9k or 7k arrows in your back)Crush wrote:How do you want to explain this?
