New Arrow Recipes?

[Asolandri]

The devs have said that there will new "expendable" arrows (are not saved by Endless Quiver) coming with the expansion. Any thoughts on this? Just bigger damage? Or perhaps with nifty effects like snare, slow, etc.? Whatever turns out it'll be nice to be able to make arrows people will actually buy =)

There was a big thread on archery on the EQlive boards, that got buried somewhere.

Just a guess, based on that thread, but I'm thinking that these arrows will be either extremely difficult to make (and thus be almost too valuable to use) or very easy to make, and thus not be worth the trouble to craft and use. With the millionaires in EQ, I'm thinking that "extremely difficult to make" means very rare drops and not very expensive bought components, since such powerful arrows would be intended for specific purpose and/or very rare use.

I don't think it'd be unrealistic, either, to expect new arrows to require drops from TSS.

Oh ... also based on that thread, they're not averse to increasing arrow damage from the current 11+4 and 13 amounts. Whether that means 14 damage, 15 damage, or maybe 13+x damage, who knows? I certainly don't.

And yet again I will say....

We have been given the ABILITY to make expendable arrows.

It came to late for us to use it.

So... I expect no arrows with this ability this expansion. There will NOT be tradeskill arrows using this flag this expansion.

Sorry if I did not say it on this boards, but I have been repeating this statement over and over again and have lost track of the places where I have repeated this statement.

I imagine it's not so easy to just apply the Expendable tag to existing arrows to at least create a market for more of them than one at a time?

**** Endless Quiver to the fiery pit of the vision imo

Easy yes.

Doing it without taking the time for full consideration. No.
