For undead, I use bright golden arrows crested with black bands.

For everything else, I use bone-shafted arrows fletched with dull black feathers.

A wooden arrow.

A heavy crossbow bolt.

Hey! Those are Sithral's colors!

Bastard.

I do want to buy a ton of griffin feathers or eagle feathers and use those to make my arrows... so if anyone is selling some huge bundles, let me know.

For Undead - a vultite arrow
For Non undead critters - a wooden arrow (ebladed)
For PC's - A wooden Arrow (poisoned)

I think Natsuki has a bunch of them in her shop in Icemule, go check it out, I could be wrong though.

My archer uses silk-banded arrows. Nothing says sexy like silky smooth death.

What about raptor feathers from the raptors in EN? If you wanted to use them I could get them with Kril while I rested Anticor.

I use enruned ivory arrows with my archer.. and on the rare occasion I use bolts (usually just against PCs, which has been a year probably) feras-tipped bolts.

>l arb
Examining the top arbalest you see that it is cocked and not loaded.
Examining the bottom arbalest you see that it is cocked and not loaded.

I got no bolts?! I loose...

But I did make Kit sell me some of his arrows thats what the bow is fireing.

I'm going to bleach the bones of my foes and use them for arrow fletching:

a bone white arrow

Plain and simple, perfect for The Destroyer.

Did(past tense)... Cept I had a large order of griffin fletched arrows so sent them to the local fletcher.
People seemed more interested in the done product(arrows) than fletching material. ::shrugs:: (don't blame em... fletchings looooong and tedious wish the RT would go down with ranks too)

I still take special orders though. Would give me a reason to go to the EN and give Meos some grief, since he's moving at snail pace ;p
Might as well... get him working to kill some birdies too. Kill two birds with one stone :)

Note: griffin feathers are ALOT more expensive than eagle feathers.
griffin feathers go from 200-1k poor-excellent. I try to stick to the poor feathers though since it doesn't make a difference in the fletchings made...(heh) Really not cost efficient to make arrows from especially since you only get lightning flares and can't eblade em.

Though you do know, icemule sells blood red eagle feathers over the shelf 30-50 silvers if memory serves correct.(they don't in vaalor... weird... but makes neat arrows... popular ones are fiery red arrows fletched with blood red feathers, silvery white or icyblue arrows fletched with snowy cockatrice feathers, I like the raptor feathers and raven feathers though :)
Sadly the part "eagle" doesn't show up on the arrow though like snowy cockatrice feathers, when you use those :(

Someone bug the GM's into releasing fletching material like they did in spitfire....

I have tons of storm griffin fletchings. Like over a thousand for sure. They give you lightning flares and thus can't be ebladed so I don't really use them myself. I'll gladly give you a hundred or two if you want them.

Eek. That's horrible. You get the flare but not the +20 you would from the eblade.

Unless they flare like every hit or hit with much harder flares, they stink.

I'm still working on fletching. Man, this shit is tedious. I'd love to have some good arrows. Eventually...

I'll take some if you still have those fletchings?

Currently in the landing.
