New bow with new changes to arrows?

[Lile]

Saw that you are going to put in a new bow and I like it. Everything new that you put in such as weapons, protective equipment and also new mechanics. So I think it's fun that ny puts out new things for the game. Because it makes the game develop and improve with each passing day. Because keeping a game alive is always with new things. i love it!

Now with the new bow coming and maybe in the future a new crossbow will come to the game. But it is with arrows that I love that there are different arrows but they are a bit strangely made.
1: So we start with the usual wooden arrow that you make at the beginning. It is too good to be the first arrow. It has no feathers and a pointed side on the stick. It should shoot sideways and take some damage. So 50% that it shoots straight, 25% damage and 25% will on the arrow before it breaks.
2: wooden arrow with feathers and pointed head. 100% shoots straight. 25% damage. 25% damage to the arrow before it breaks.
3: wooden arrow with feathers and stone head. 100% shoots straight, 50% damage, 25% damage to the arrow.
4: wooden arrow with springs and iron head. 100% shoots straight, 75% damage and 25% damage to the arrow.
Why it takes 25% damage to the arrow is because it's a wooden arrow and they don't last forever. So you can shoot it 4 times before it breaks completely.

So iron arrows or steel.
5: So they also shoot straight 100%. 75%, 85%, 100% in damage to someone depends on which arrow. 5%, 10%, 15% should take the damage of the arrow.
so basically you can use these iron/steel arrows more often than the factory made ones and to do more damage and hold better.
This can make it better for someone who wants to use a bow all the time. Then to switch to better arrows. Too bad now everyone only uses the first arrows they make and it shouldn't be like that.
Because it must be with best equipment wines.

but you may have a better idea where I am. but this is a solution that might help a little.
Hope you read lots of love.

Realism is good but we know it kills the gameplay. Unfortunately.

The wooden arrows used to break in the past, they could bring that back. as for accuracy, it should not be over complicated, perhaps just at a certain range they bounce off/ don't stick.
I used to make bows and arrows as a kid with sharpened bamboo and at short range they flew fine, and would easily puncture water bottles or mellons etc.

Feathers could add range in-game. Stone and metal tip already adds to damage.

Feather fletching adds stabilising effect to arrow... not specifically range. You want range?
then you'll want a heavier draw.

@Devs - while talking about arrows and fletching; lets quickly mention that crossbow bolts were fletched with wood -not feathers.

You mean irl I guess. the issue in this game is, no feather wood flys straight every time. that is realistic at short range but over distance its not. When I mention range and bouncing off a target at range is meaning the arrow has lost its initial straight trajectory and is no longer flying straight enough to penetrate. That would be the easiest way to alter different types of arrows effectiveness, one variable, range. I currently can get one hit headshot kills with a no feather wooden arrow and crafted bow from very far away. they ALWAYS fly straight, you just have to adjust for drop.

In reality i shoot with arrows that was self made from birch wood plank, without any feathers or tip. It fly ok, and i hit target almost in center from 35 meters, soo all this about how much it will miss depends purely on quality of made arrow and shooter not about material.
P.s. bow: self made block bow 61 lbs.
