Where my Archery bow bros at?

Post by srifenbyxp » #307696

We got wooden shields and swords/axes, why not bows?

Bow

wooden plank + cable coil (10x)

Arrow

wooden plank + cable coil (5x) + glass shard

Quiver

skin (3x)

You're a little short for a elf. This crafting recipie is also awkward, 1+ for leather but cable? really?

Bow's are generally quite a poor weapon currently in the game and not very well maintained, i suggested bone bows here as a alternative.

We should really make a plant that gives out strings that can be processed for cloth, or have the strings used as a component in making violins/guitars etc and these bows, so we can have podpeople elves.

Why has your bone bow not been added yet? Is the admin conspiracy stirring again?

Well obviously you must know the secret that the ideas forum is actually ignored by most coders who don't share the same vision and shitposting outside of it is x2000 times more effective. I even got a response from Remie on the original thread, truly blessed.

We actually have bows that I added ages ago, but never did anything to them. They would probably need a full refactor before being craftable

*Crossbows*

The bow pre-supplies is terrible (as in literally broken and hardly works getting stuck in the drawn back state) and is never used.
