June 18: Thrown Weapons

This was added a week or so ago, just forgot to post about it.

Characters wielding throwing weapons (shuriken, darts, and throwing axes) can now add a portion of their strength to the damage inflicted with these weapons. Each of these weapons, when acquired, now gain the "mighty +3" property...so you can add up to 3 points of your strength modifier to damage with hurled weapons when you can throw harder.

I noticed this, thought it was part of the shuriken love update Very nice.

Question though, the mighty property added to throwing axes and darts won't restrict them will it? The axes and darts are normally unlimited mighty.

I was unaware that all darts and throwing axes were already might. hehe

Maybe I'll just switch it to just for shuriken. It shouldn't interfere anyway.

Sweet!

There was a time in DnD history when thrown weapons did more damage/rd melee ones when STR was taken into account.

Nothing like a dart throwing Minotaur entering combat (especially if he has a halfing riding on his shoulders, also throwing darts).

I checked earlier when I had Angar logged on, no interference with the axes, shouldn't with darts either The shurikens getting boosts too now is still awesome. I just realized it's great too because being added as a temp prop doesn't jack up the prices for mundane ones in the shops

Exactly.
