umm? [quote=“Orsome, post:1, topic:3218”]

  • Feed Power: 350

a bit low…[quote=“Orsome, post:1, topic:3218”]
MP Cost: 110
[/quote]

should be higher for that insane dmg, but quiver was never meant for dmg, it was meant to para, actually idk, b/c shuriken isnt that high mana.[quote=“Orsome, post:1, topic:3218”]

  • Cooldown: 2 seconds
    [/quote]

good having a cooldown. [quote=“Orsome, post:1, topic:3218”]
insult all you want

lol

#3

The damage is meant to be high because of mana cost, it nerfs the ability to just spam along with cooldown :smile:

#4

How long does the paralyze last?

Also, it is not a really good idea to add 2 rare whites to one boss, as you could be farming for one rare white (dbow) and get this quiver that the person was not farming for

#5

cough ctrap cough

#6

Although that is a good point to be honest everyone already cries at OTs.

#7

Also duration is mentioned in my post. Paralyze lasts 3 seconds.

#8

No offense to you, but this is a really weak argument. The chances you get a DBow would be the same as beforehand. Besides, getting something is better than getting nothing.

#9

nvm, I see the logic in that my bad

#10

sooo, something you guys may have missed

this is more powerful than dcircle and also inflicts paralyze? AND it pierces?
cooldown or not, that’s insane. especially for only 110 mp.
I would remove the paralyze, the enemy piercing, or BOTH.

nice sprite though, 10/10.

#11

well i semi mentioned it

#12

OP as hell.

Make it a really slow projectile, lower the range to 5, remove piercing from obstacles and terrain, bump cooldown to 2.5 seconds, make paralyze last 0.5 seconds, give it slow of 1 second.

And boom, your quiver becomes decently balanced.

#13

I’ve increased cool down time to 3, erased terrain and obstacle piercing, and slowed projectile speed but range will be 7 and paralyse 1 second with slowness of 1.5 seconds, how does that sound?

#14

Seems balanced-ish.

Personally i think the quiver should focus on high DPS. low range, and little debuffs, as it would be a nice niche that would give you a slight DPS buff, especially if all you have is that one moment to fire off a quiver and dbow shot. Hence, why i gave those stats.

You need to find the right balance between trying to make the item not OP, but also actually useful.

#15

Just had an idea, should I knock down the damage and instead inflict curse and slow without paralyse? As you said, it would give higher DPS and make it more situational than just a double d-bow shot with extra damage. Because then it would help soloing archers to deal more damage, thus eliminating enemies quicker.

#16

The curse and slow is a really nice idea! It’s more unique than paralyze and knocking down the damage with it will balance it

#17

Thanks :slight_smile: I personally think slow would be a nice concept, paralyse in LOD for example sucks for Nikao (Blue dragon) because more shots are going backwards when it’s rushing towards you meaning less shots to dodge, also the lower tier quivers slow but for less damage, so this would be like a direct upgrade from those with slow instead of paralyse :sunglasses:

#18

How about you don’t steal mechanics from other classes just to make your item have a niche, that a be great.

#19

I wasn’t stealing mechanics…?

#20

Unless you mean I’m trying to make a quiver into a damaging orb, because no.
