# Core Changes

## Razor Arrow now applies Bleed.

## Healing Arrow -- Cloud healing increased from 5 (Default) to 40 per tick, and no longer does any physical damage.

## Unique Arrows that are not craftable have all buffs, except damage for all Unique arrows is set at 40.

## Blunted Arrow now deals 0 physical damage and only concussive.

## Increased Stack Sizes

All modified arrows now stack to:

**500** *(Base Game: 100)*

This significantly reduces inventory clutter and improves long-range expedition gameplay.

---

## Damage Rebalance

Arrow damage has been adjusted to create smoother progression between material tiers and improve overall bow viability.

### Damage Adjustments

* **Razor Arrows**

* Added Bleed Status Effect

* **Flinthead Arrows**

* Increased from **3 - 6** damage

* **All Other Modified Arrows**

* Increased by **+4 damage** over their original base values, scaling up with tier and early-late game.

These changes provide:

* More meaningful progression between arrow tiers * Improved late-game archery scaling * Better overall ranged combat performance

---

## Reduced Arrow Weight

All modified arrows now weigh:

**0.002** *(Base Game: 1.0)*

This allows players to carry significantly larger ammunition reserves without excessive encumbrance penalties.

---

## Reduced Stamina Cost

All modified arrows now use a:

**0.5 stamina cost multiplier** *(Base Game: 1.0)*

This improves sustained combat effectiveness and reduces stamina drain during extended engagements.

---

## Increased Crafting Yield

All modified arrow recipes now craft:

**25 arrows per craft** *(Base Game: 10)*

This reduces unnecessary material grind and better supports dedicated ranged-focused builds.

# Design Goals

Enhanced Archery Lite was designed to:

* Improve overall bow viability * Reduce unnecessary inventory management * Create smoother material progression * Make archery feel more rewarding throughout gameplay * Enhance ranged combat quality-of-life while maintaining balance
