Thrown weapon boons

Post by livingNPC » Wed Sep 10, 2014 7:34 am

To encouragethe different flavors of ranged combat, I was hoping some minor boons could be added to some thrown weapons.

Current, only arrows and shurikens are weightless items, so I'd like to suggest darts' weight be reduced from 0.1 to 0 (as a stack of 50 could weight 5lbs, which is very heavy).

With that said, I'd like to add that wounding with a very low DC being added to these thrown weapons.

Dart- (weight reduction) and wounding DC 10
Shuriken- wounding DC 15

Give throwing axes wounding DC 20 then, to compensate for their insane weight requirement that makes them useless for all but STR focused characters.

Actually, I am mostly wanting weight reductions. Bow and arrows are so overused and dull, but they're the lightest option
