Ranged weapon awesomeness
« on: December 13, 2010, 04:40:29 pm »
I've not seen many good stories of archery awesomeness, seen some throwing stories...

Anyways, I've decapitated someone, then hit the person behind him in the leg with a single arrow.


Also shot another guy's wang off...

The only kill I've ever gotten with a bow in a straight-up, honorable battle, was when I threw my bow into a guy's eye and bruised his brain.

(heh, pic related I guess)

Headshots are always a welcome f& fun actor in ranged combat....especially from a good distance.

Though I remember a time when I was shooting an Elf full of +Elf tooth arrows+ & he kept on coming like a enraged PETA member. One shot actually pierced his heart...he stopped for a while...he then proceeded to rip it out off his chest aside from the the extreme pain and heavy bleeding & continued to rush at me.

He had guts, I respect that...so I went medieval on him with an -Elf bone throne- made from one of his partners.

If I'm right somebody hit an adventurer with a bow, forcing it through his heart. Or the player attacked somebody with a bow, forcing it through their heart.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

I need someone to draw a axedwarf all decked out in steel in a human tavern with dead bodies everywhere and with a crawling archer in the door way and a bow thro said dwarf's heart

I know this was a typo, but the mental image was too good to pass up...

When I played my first char. I chose a axdwarf and loved swinging my axs at enemy faces, I went on my first quest and was up against a lasher he came charging so I thought i'd try throwing something, turns out I had a silver great Axe that I found in a cave. I threw it and it lodged smack in his face brain tear etc etc  and i was just like .... HELL YEAHHH!!!!!

Of course at this point I think the game is easy and try to repeat with a lion, didn't turn out as good.

I've generally found that throwing lions at bandits does work.

My last character was an Elfin Archer. Instead of asking for a quest right off the bat she asked about the surroundings and found a close by lair. It had a troll inside, so she sneaks up and shoots it, KOing with one arrow and braining with a pomel strike from her dagger. Her first kill of any sort, obtained in two hits on a creature you usualy don't see until the Lords start giving quests.

Shortly afterward she found a goblin camp. After sneaking around and sniping off their archer for his metal ammo I decided it was time to shoot down the Warlord. My first shot veered off course missing him but still found a way to score a headshot on a nearby lasher. My next shot brained the warlord, but then I was spotted, rushed, and cut down by a hoard of goblins before she could notch her next arrow.
