Blowdarts?
« on: June 16, 2008, 07:23:33 pm »

I've been playing adventure mode a lot recently, expiramenting with different professions, and PERSONALLY (I doubt many people share this want), I like playing with the blowgun most (Though I did bring the darts' damage up to 40 - call me a cheater)! Unfortunately, I have yet to find a weapon shop that sells darts for it.

Q: How can I get more blowdarts in adventure mode?
A: [Nice people put things here.]

Well I have a question for you!

Where did you find a blowgun?

Just pick a common, weak creature and give it [ITEMCORPSE:BLOWDARTS] or whatever the tag is.

A true dwarf would have used many many years building forts with the goal of making an artifact blowgun by having dozens of bowyers around. It would also be so much cooler to have the only blowgun in the world.

Wow, the wiki says that there exists the blowgunner skill. Someone should get a legendary blowgunner in a default world.  ;D Dwarf-ympics needs the category for the best blowgunner.

Well, except the bolts truly aren't anywhere to be found  :-\

P.S. Q: Are blowdarts kept in a quiver or somewhere else?

As far as I concern you get only one item per corpse. So it's a bit disturbing to kill a creature with 4-6 darts to get one.

The best solution so far it so give it to goblins/evil modded race and kill their blowgunners for ammo.

Knowing other ranged weapons, they most likely work like a silenced sniper rifle machinegun.

Have you tried just throwing the darts?  They should last longer that way :P

My fortress has an artifact blowgun. The kobolds still haven't taken it.
