24539, Flaming Arrow
Posted by Mariner Hunter on Wed 31-Dec-69 07:00 PM
Hi Ish,

Not a bug just an usual one.

I'm playing an Hunter Mariner and flaming arrow seems a bit odd to be able to use underwater:

As you pull your next arrow, you dip the head in a flask of oil, then set it ablaze!

At the risk of potentially nerfing myself could Hunter Mariners perhaps lose flaming arrow and get something else?

Some ideas:
- Jellyfish toxin (paralyze)
- Squid ink (blind) - explodes in a cloud on impact
- Barbed arrow - bleeding makes most sense but it is kind of redundant with harpoon. Maybe it lowers str / dex or makes movement more taxing? Could be cool if it sticks in the other player (for -1 hours), but can be removed with a command (doing big dam and bleed upon removal)
- Grappling arrow - has a very thin rope attached, perhaps makes fleeing harder?

Truthfully poison arrow doesn't make too much sense either, as you're dipping in a pot underwater, then firing it through the water but isn't as strange as flaming arrow.

Thanks!

This is the bugboard. Ideas go elsewhere.
