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.

Awesome, thank you.

Oh thanks for that link. Reworked the mod off that now. Not sure if the previous version had the test world attached or not. I remember removing it at some point. Mod should be uploading to steam right now.

Alright, cool!

Also, how are you changing the values? Are you using the ModController or editing the source table directly? If the latter, check out the first part of this wiki article [conanexiles.gamepedia.com] for a better way to do things using the ModController which avoids source file edits and improves compatibility between mods.

The mod seems a lot bigger than it should be for a data table edit so I'd check the files in your active mods folder and delete any not core to your changes to make sure erroneous stuff isn't being built with the mod (this happened to me before I realized).

@DAOWAce Sure thing. Have to update. Should be done later today.

Any chance of this mod being updated? (devkit updates for fixes to yog stuff, rebuild with july 5 patch changes)

It's pretty much the only sensible archery mod on the workshop.

If not, I'll probably look into re-creating it as bows are just pointless to use right now.

Very nice mod! Good job and thanks!

@TinyBabyOwl I don't see how they would do that. Can you tell me which archer is one shotting them? I haven't seen this happen.

Anything that can be done about NPCs using bows? Some people on my server were saying they were getting 1 shot by lvl 1 archers after installing this mod.

@7Synns. Yes throwing weapons can be thrown again. The mesh for the yog cudgel is still broken in the current devkit so I used a club mesh as a replacement. The only change is it's look. It still works exactly like a normal religious harvester tool.

thank you for sharing the mod, i had this in but could not throw any spear, im guessing what u mention about fixing throwing weapons is what u mean, and also is the yog weapon back to normal? thx

New devkit update so new mod update. Fixed throwing weapons and added a little more omph to heavy attacks as they felt a little weak compared to light attacks.

Thanks again for the awesome mod!
