I remember seeing a site that showed you what the finished product of your arrows/bolts would look like depending on materials. I tried searching for it but no luck. Anyone got the link?

That's the only site I know of that has much info on it.

Also, does the flip verb work for you guys? It's never worked for me.

It works for me. I tend to flip it three times to show the wood type then the color on the item.

I forget which flip is to show the fletchings, but I tend not to use that as I tend to use different fletchings and if I keep the color of the wood the same, they all bundle regardless of fletching, which is nice.

When I try to flip my arrows it always just says "What are ya? some kinda acrobat?" or something like that.

Thank you! The krakipedia link had a lot of the info I wanted. I saw a link at the bottom that was an Archery shop listing but it's dead. Anyone know of a another one?

Also I've been to the shops in the landing, solhaven, and mule but they didn't have any paint, only paintsticks. Do you need backroom access for those?

The paint is there. I believe it's right above the paintsticks, it's just a vial of paint. You can customize it by choosing a color of paint. You only need backroom access for the special wood.

The shop in Sylvarraend has everything you need for fletching, but I'm not sure if you need backroom access to see all of it.

Edit: except daggers/axes, which can be purchased lots of places.

Quick question.. Is this the message for a perfect shaft?

You pare away the excess wood, taking care to keep the shaft straight. In addition to being perfectly straight, the rough arrow shaft is thick enough to stand up to some punishment, yet light enough to fly true. All in all, peerless craftsmanship.
Roundtime: 29 sec.

Yes, peerless is what you want to see.

I can't believe you got by there without one penis joke. I thought of 3 before I got to the next paragraph.

How does one use the flip verb for your arrows? I can't do it... it never works!

FLIP MY SHAFT should do the trick.

By the way..Been back for 2 days now, started fletching yesterday and so far it's coming along well I suppose.

In the skill of fletching, you are a skilled laborer with 309 ranks.

Granted 400 to 500 takes the longest usually, I think in the past the fastest I've mastered fletching was in 3 days, so maybe I can break 2.

WTF. You're just leaving it fletching overnight and all day or something? Because it feels I've been doing this for hours... days... and I barely have 200 ranks.

Nah, I don't afk script nor would even think about letting it run overnight, that's way too sketchy for me, I sure as hell do not wanna lose any gained Artisan Ranks whatsoever heh.

All I do, is run my Fletching Master script after I collected a boat load of wood with my other script. As of this post, I am now at 317 ranks. I'm hoping to hit 400 by later this evening. Keep in mind, I haven't hunted much at all, all my time spent logged has been for fletching the past day.

Sure, they are quite simple really. Is your character in the landing by chance?
