Arrow Selection - Page 2

I would love to see this in Undermountain too. I've already lost around 10 of the holiday arrows from them loading themselves.

That script sounds like it would be a real benefit and I cast my vote. Would it work for all ammo related weapons ( slings, darts and crossbows?) I know of a few halfling slingers who would like this as well!

As I read the description, yes. The script and documentation are available here.

They don't really have too much effect on a high-magic world such as this - Arrow of Death (with its fixed DC of 20) can sometimes be useful for taking out casters on low-level low-power worlds.

Also, Seeker Arrows can be highly useful in PVP - see that Epic Dodging, Arrow Deflecting Monk at Near Death that's trying to run away? Pew.

Yeah, sure. I'll cast a vote in for this - although you'll lose the added reality hit from having to check your ammo before you hit a firefight.

Now that we know a bunch of players are interested in this, how do we let Z know?

I've already PM'd him a couple times but I imagine he may have more than a few to sift through.

A PM will be fine, he does get around to them all but, as you'd expect, that's a fair amount of wading through to do. And note that getting it in place may not necessarily be speedy as he already has other things in development; as with any project you don't start changing spec mid-way without creating a whole world of pain for yourself. Requests just have to be factored into further updates. I have experience of this world of pain - part of my job is to fix things when work projects end up that way

Speed is not my primary concern here, I don't presume to tell someone how or when to run their project; having not had a response on any front, my concern is that this will get lost in the shuffle.
