HELP ANYONE SCORCHED EARTH QUESTIONS
So just a few questions I've been wondering that would be much appreciated if answered by most people as possible........
which is better the boomarang or tranq arrows, give me pros and cons of each one and how each benefits in situation and go on and on how ones better than the others in this situation or in total and what not...go wild about it cause anything can happen...also on weapons does it matter if you pull all the way back until u shake? does it make damage and torpor stronger or distance.... also what if you don't wind up the bolas to full speed any cons from that cause sometimes it locks the person standing or lays them down(not sure how that works)? And what is the percentage of chance that the boomarang breaks or is there a way of measuring that?Also when u get a human headshot what is the multiplayer for it in torpor and damage, thx Let me know if there's anything else u think I should know thanks the more the merrier cause I'm one curious guy. I play Xbox so hit me up if u wanna join tribe? Let this feed just be about tips and tricks for all players, POST FREELY!!!! server NA_918

I got this info in 30 seconds.

Torpor of the Boomerang = That of a crossbow with a Tranq arrow.

I haven't played Ark in awhile but I imagine it takes longer for the boomerang to return to you than it would to load another arrow in the crossbow?

Boomerang is 70 topor per hit.
tranq arrow is 157 after hit and 5 sec inteval (so reload time +2 secs)

The tranq arrow is better for topr but you get multiple thows out of 1 boomerang. You only get 1 shot per arrow.

You can pick arrows back up as well. Granted not all of them.

With a reg bow yes, nurg was quoting crossbow stats.

I was just looking at instant torpor earlier, my bad.

Im sorry i didnt read all of it. The bow thing, If you pull all the way back thats where you get the 40 damage from. a mid range pull will do between 30-35 and a quick pull and release will do about 20. The range is also effected by how far you pull it back.

Same thing with the bolas. If you dont wind it up its not flying as far. When you hit someone it stops them, not sure what makes someone lay down.

The boomerang as far as braking your a the mercy of the RNGods for that. Just like a spear. Can go forever or break on the first try.

with the headshots on players. Maybe its the same x2.5 it is for everything that gets a headshot. not realy sure. When I do pvp the odds of me getting a head shot are slim to none anyways so I have no real experience in that area.

Hope this helped.
