Requiring arrows and bolts just doesn’t make sense. All bows and x-bows should just come with infinite ammunition, like act 1 mercenary. Because people often want to carry one extra set of ammunition during play through of the game, they lose out on inventory slots. Bow-zon is already very resource heavy because of mana cost (which has been addressed).
Way back in the day world of warcraft got rid of arrows and it was a huge quality of life change.
i wish they would just add a low level unique quiver with infinite arrows or bolts. maybe a level 42 req or something so arrows are still usable at low levels. or atleast replenish like titans.
I’m happy with making arrows hold 600 and bolts 450 for now.
I agree with this and think it should be taken further with throwing weapons. Get rid of arrows/bolts, and stack size on throw weapons. Give these items durability instead. Increased stack size becomes increased durability. Replenish quantity becomes repair durability. Allow throwing weapons to be socketed. Tune durability loss such that I don’t need to repair 1-2 times per area. Magic arrows/bolts would not cause durability loss.
Also think that throw weapon travel speed/distance should be improved. Takes over a second to reach the edge of the screen with axes and they barely get there. Would help for pvp.
might be a fun idea.
in old D2 i kind of ignored using a bowazon (or bows in general) because i didn’t want to hold on to an extra stack of arrows/bolts should i run out in the middle of a fight (often i forget to refresh the stack and/or won’t find any from drops)
Take it a step further. Have the character come with a basic infinite quiver with no mods, but have rare and unique quivers like PoE to add more variety to the gear. As is, the arrow slot serves no purpose but a quality of life annoyance. If you could equip a rare quiver, not only would that slot do something cool but buff one of the weakest builds in the game.
no dont get rid of make uniqe and yellow arrows and bolts
They need a unique off hand stat stick quiver and or bolts. Every other class can equip one.
At the very least increase it by 3 fold
Agreed. Arrows and bolts are just annoying to refill. They need to do the same thing for throwables on weapons like warshrike or the lacerator. That or increase their quantity refill by a ton or the base # for quantity by like 3x.
