Was thinking.. and no im no real ranger.. rather a SK :P But i have an ranger alt and i am atleast aware of the ammo problem. So this is what i thought off. What if they implemented Master Crafted arrows.. like T7 MC arrows would rank 1 tier higher.. so like instead of being lvl 70 ammo.. it would get lvl 80. MC arrows could span over all the tiers even. One rare wood could yield like 1k arrows or more. Have nicer bonuses then regular arrows. And it would kind of solve the ammo problems for T8 bows for example. Sure... MC ammo would be kinda expensive, but for higher dps and yield per rare, it shouldnt be that bad. But then again, im no real ranger ;)

if it would use incarndine and make like 1000 per combine then it wouldn't be bad imo, but I wont pay 30-40g for a stack or 2. It's just a whole lot more coin to function properly than any class should have to pay, even at the prices of common arrows for those that dont have DT bows.

They use to have arrows that were MC and they took them out of game. Don't remeber why its been so long.

I make my argument one more time cause Im bored. I understand the arrow mechanics will never be fixed correctly though. That would require a dev, of which we dont have.

All arrows should be capable of producing 100% damage on all bows. If you use higher level ammo you should of course get benefits. I will illistrate with examples.

A Tier 3 field point should give +25 crush damage
Tier 4 field point should give +45 crush damage etc.

A Tier 3 Broadhead could cause DoT like +25 over 5 secs.
Tier 4 Broadhead could cause DoT like +45 etc.

Bodkins should give +crit which increase with tier.

I would add and have rare MC arrows do something cool like add DPS or some decent proc.

It doesnt matter though. The whole think is screwed and any fix will be worse than what we have. Not that you will see a fix because again that would require a Dev.
