Recharged arrow broken?

Mehran · 10-20-2012, 07:56 PM

Hello. Brief and short, I think I am the only marksman whose recharged arrows seems to be broken. I thought it was due to me just switching bows, but no, it randomly turns off after a couple of hits with whichever bow i use, with or without using extra spells and just is a real hassle when needed most.

So in short, does every1 else's recharged arrows work?

A couple? I don't know but as far as I know RA turns off when you run out of mana, and this happens very very fast, specially at lvl 5.

Yes, a couple. And no, I mean RA does turn off when i run out of mana, but sometimes it will turn off *automatically* when i have +500 mana just grinding.. like i would activate it, hit a mob once, then it will deactivate. and -100mana while a 15sec cd on a boost scroll is ridiculous, especially on my first boost scroll ;(

As far as I know, it also depends on how much health you have. When your hp goes under (about) 300 it automatically turns off.

does it? hmm, might be the problem, but i'm sure i do have like half hp, not sure. Or, it could be like under 10% hp. Not sure, will have to see, although that is sort of stupid since it does not say anything about hp in its description..

Ok, i found the real solution, and it's a mixture of your answer and a little experimenting i just did.

Apparently, Recharged Arrows (RA) uses BOTH mana and hp. As in it takes -20 mana AND -20 hp per shot, so in short, wtf??? WTF lol. It only says costs mana and your hp dropping means this is not RA, this is Suicidal Arrows. And when you get under 350ish (which im assuming is 10% of your hp), it turns off. This is very foolish and needs reworking. Please look into this NGD if this is what you fully intended
