Darts and Slings

[Nalds Lenha]

Will there be darts and slings sometime soon?

[Shadenuat]

They are missing from the game.

[Nalds Lenha]

Is it a bug?

[Shadenuat]

It is a mystary.

[ArschvomDienst]

Not a bug.
Just not present.
Yet(?).

[Col. Closeup]

There are Slingstaffs, essentially slings.

[Shadenuat]

They are not. They are exotic weapons, not simple weapons.

[IKerensky]

Great, so my Druid have no ranged option, great....

[Weaver]

Yeah that would be really nice to have!

Has anyone tried the slingstaff? Problem is bows are probably more efficient without the feat tax though...

[Nalds Lenha]

Slingstaff is two-handed exotic weapon. Really other thing then darts and slings. I was going to do a druid and stoped cus of no ranged weps for him. Maybe let him use bow while no slings? Better then having to do a melee druid or no druid.

Druids dont get simple weapon proficiency for free so one of the few classes that can't use them.

But if you make an Elven druid you can use all kinds of bows right from the start. Including Composite.

Nice idia!

Kind of wasting +2 int bonus though?

[Cinna]

In b4 "lacking a basic ranged weapon for druid was part of the devloper's vision for the game's difficulty".

There is a sling staff

not gonna point out where but theres an exceptionally good one that not only deals good damage and has some good stats but also grants +2 dex when worn.
