Flame Arrow

Post by Vern Kron »

I think to add something to the archery system, we could impliment flame arrows.

Oil + arrow = flame arrow

More damage, less accuracy. How would it work? As the arrow travels across the bow (perhaps a certain type), it ignites. If it hits, more damage than usual, or maybe putting a flame on the tile.

Why? Because Archery lacks, except for the very very high end gear.

Discuss.

Sounds good to me. :O

A KEL RA animation and damage effect maybe. Putting a flame on the ground seems a bit much. XD

At the risk of going off-topic slightly...

How about adding the ability to use the sling to throw gem stones in addition to the pebbles?

@Kamilar; throw them RP-wise by hand, like onionball.
Hmm...torches do damage at "throw hit"
