Description
I felt that archery damage was lacking in the base game. This mod aims to make Archery more balanced with respect to melee weapons. It will not raise damage to ridiculous levels. There are other mods that already do that.

Bow stats are a hot mess in vanilla. This mod adjusts many bows to feel like upgrades to prior tiers. Some bows recieve a 1-2 damage boost.

-Exceptional bows have 1 more damage than regular variants.

-Flawless bows have 2 more damage over regular variant.

-Hardened steel bows gain 4 damage over current vanilla.

-Legendary bows have 3 more damage.

-All bow heavy attack damage increased by a base of 2 (in addition to damage bonus from other changes)


I haven't done a thorough check on what they did to arrows in recent patches. If anyone notices arrows with damage values that seem weak compared to how they are obtained/crafted, let me know.

This only changed vanilla bows. I also don't know what changes they have made since my last release as I haven't played or followed the patches for nearly 2 years.

does this work with Aoc bows also? or just vanilla bows get stronger?

Based on dlc bows and using and not using this mod I would suggest this

Return the hunting bow to 4 damage, the dlc bows do 7 and are easy to make and get early in the game. Plus having the hunting bow too high makes it more likely we would simply skip to the Light Hyrkanian bows. All the other bow damages look good but, the dlc bows at higher level do 21 damage, so I would just bring the Star Metal bow inline with those which only does 18 with your mod.

@Godogma When I made this mod, Archery was in a terribly weak position, being completely outclassed by melee. It's possible the devs finally fixed bow damage and made it stronger than i did, but I haven't payed attention to Conan changes for a few months.

Actually I just noticed something strange - my Flawless Star Metal Bow which is supposed to be doing 2 more damage actually do 2 less; 22 became 20... I don't think this is up to date anymore unfortunately.

Love the mod, is there any chance I could tempt you into reducing arrow weight as well? I run solo and 40lbs of arrows is more than somewhat ridiculous.

Just took another look through the data tables. Noticed I forgot to make light hyrkanian bows leather in my previous remake of the mod. Also noticed vanilla stats on some bows have been adjusted to this mods stats, though it looks like they were half-hearted with the changes. Uploading fix for light bows now.

@thiphariel. I'm pretty sure vanilla stats are 7 and 9. I had raised them to 9 and 11. I know star metal bow got buffed in vanilla recently, the hyrkanian bows may have been changed as well.

Hi. I see no change on my bows damage with this mod. Any clue ? (Hyrkanian bow : 11 damage, Light Hyrkanian : 9 damage. Seems Vanilla's one) Thanks

This makes sense and is perfect for playing solo for handling bosses. Good decision not to go crazy with the increases. Mods that do that are going to ruin the survival experience.
