Garrulous Glaahk Richard Bacon Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 What would be better for me to use. Crossbows or Bows. I'd choose crossbows but im wondering if Bolts can be poisoned or not. or is it only arrows that can be poisoned. or is this not even possible because only the item "poison arrows" are poisoned arrows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 You can poison all weapons, however until you have enough skill with poison you can poison yourself when applying it. In Exile the bigger question is the availability of arrows and bolts without having to buy them. In the early part of the game it is easier to find arrows.

You can't poison thrown weapons such as darts, stones, etc. Guessing you can't poison a sling, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyshakk Koan Thaluikhain Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I was going to say I didn't think it mattered, but arrows are more plentiful than bolts, yeah. Though, slings avoid that problem. OTOH, bows, crossbows and slings don't seem terribly useful anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Understated Ur-Drakon The Almighty Doer of Stuff Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 It was discovered, upon examining the code, that Bows skill was completely non-functional in legacy BoE due to a programming error. Thrown Missiles skill worked, I think. GiantFriendlyTalkingSpiderman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understated Ur-Drakon Celtic Minstrel Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 In the unstable OBoE version, yes it should function now. But that version isn't really playable yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
