What if you made it dexterity to hit and strength on damage. You could also give it -2 or -3 to hit because of the increased power. Ninjablade46 (talk) 08:16, 24 February 2017 (MST)

I increased the dexterity requirementfor the bow fixed some of the grammar and balnced out the attack roll and damage. Ninjablade46 (talk) 08:29, 24 February 2017 (MST)

The only point of this weapon I can think of, is that it allow someone with high strength to have a long range option.
It is the same as a longbow, but with double the cost and less range.
On average it deals 1 more damage, and uses Strength modifier for damage.
This means:
  • You need both a high Strength and a high Dexterity (instead of just a high Dexterity)
  • If your Strength is less than your Dexterity, you are better off with the longbow.
The prerequisites are pointless. Just having this based on two ability scores instead of one is restrictive enough. Marasmusine (talk) 02:57, 25 February 2017 (MST)
Fixed it. See how things can be simple instead of complicated. Marasmusine (talk) 03:01, 25 February 2017 (MST)
