Suggestion allow smiths use of bows

[mikehk]

OK, so as a smith/pyro, it can sometimes be tedious to repair a bow, because everytime i do anything that updates my character, it removes the bow from my hand. my suggestion is to allow smiths to use a bow (only like 1 damage or so, so it won't be abused), so we can repair them easier.

Pretty please.

It only removes from your hand if you try use it, scroll your hotbar or over time. Try avoid those things, but I support this anyway so long it's only like 1dmg.

Sorry but even doing 1 damage can still make it better for your class for knock back reasons to keep people away from you or to stop people from running.

Every class can use snowballs for that...

Bow+infinity=2 room spaces.

Snowballs=16 per slot

Forget but can you have punch on a bow in HC?

yeah you can have a punch bow.

Exactly it makes people escape that much better and it still is not suppose to be used with that certain class

Good point, that would be to much and not something that could be blocked.
I will have to remove my support! Not that Kainzo would have missed the whole punch issue anyhow

Maybe make it do no dmg but still wieldable is this possible?

 

[mikehk]

maybe make it so it has a timer on how long you can have it on your action bar, IE 10 seconds, not long enough to be used to your advantage, but give u enough time to type "/skill repair"

 

[Fjordsen]

Don't scroll your hotbar, that can keep an item in your hand for up to like 5 min.

I don't have this problem as a smith, really. Just type in the /skill repair, scroll to an empty slot in your hotbar, quickslot the bow down, close inv, press 'T', go up once, enter. Then it even removes it from your hotbar for free!
