Make throwing great again

[Erevorn 130]

Would be nice if thrown weaponry like small axes, spears and maybe something new - throwing knives dealt actual damage to the enemy. I can imagine that getting an axe to the chest from a distance of 20 meters still hurts.

 

Damage can be related to given weapon skill.

-1. Throwing already works. 

 

[09:17:31] Your short sword hits aged fat horse in the hip.
[09:17:31] You hit aged fat horse pretty hard in the hip and hurt it.

 

That's a 40ql short sword with no enchants.

You want thrown weapons to instant-kill horses? Consider that thrown weapons can be used while already in combat in conjunction with your conventional melee weapon. If you want ranged weapons buy a bow and some arrows.

Perhaps there should be a skill with throwing weapons? This way you can actually get better with it as you do it. The way how combat normally works.

I think @Erevornprobably just wants something like throwing knifes to throw at stuff. Since a bow is normal and the idea of throwing knifes or axes is pretty cool. 

 

Long story short +1 if we also can get special throwing axes and throwing knifes. Otherwise why not a new way to fight is always fun.

It uses your weapon skill for damage and I think also for hit chance (hazy memory)

To be fair, if this is the same 40ql shortsword being thrown the whole time then 11 hits seems pretty good already. @pachiprutodo you have amazing body stats that would skew this info a lot, i thought throwing was useless.

Pachiprutos logs CLEARLY show that throwing is OP. Lets nerf it! I personally carry around 7 longsword, 4 large axes, 5 huge axes, 6 med mauls and 2 longspears. It annoys me how sometimes I dont even get an opportunity to throw all my weapons at a huge spider. Please fix!!

Let me throw needles! Several at once!

 

Just to harass people.

I have fun with it +1
