Triple Barrel Snakebite and the church

[evilerevilhero]

Apparently, creating and using the Triple Barrel Snakebite makes church or Nora and Lee, dislike you by 20/10. Is this a one time problem or one that goes on for the continous use of the Triple Barrel Snakebite?

It's one time.
And you can also avoid that relationship hit if you just never read the letter they send, too.
There's another gun in the game that can make them send the letter, too.

But you only get the letter once, even if you use both guns.

they both can be ignored without any real side effects.

It was severely creepy how quickly I got that letter after using that pistol the first time. Especially given I was near my mailbox. It gave them a severe negative with me, as I don't need creepy stalkers monitoring me. :P

I didn't even make the gun for my own use. I thought it would make a nice birthday present for Sam. (who loved it, btw.) In retrospect it was probably good I didn't give Arlo one. Would have made things very awkward between him and Nora...

owning do not trigger effect, shooting ever once does.

The one time relationship hit is like the disappointment you get from seeing how weak guns are after firing them, its not worth it.

If the church hates guns, can we have bows? I mean, even old timey medieval warbows had insane draw weights of up to 150lbs. They can tell who was a bowman by the changes in their skeletal structure warbows were so powerful.
To put things in perspective, I have a 35lbs and a crossbow with a draw weight of 175lbs. The crossbow would penetrate straight through a flesh & bone target. However a hand bow is drawn back further, meaning more power is put into the arrow; which means that medieval warbows would out even more energy into an arrow than a modern (medium draw weight) crossbow.
Needless to say, I treat bows like I will a firearm, they can be just as dangerous.

You would think that if the Church is against weapons like these they would at least try to sell the equivalent solution that is a bow and arrow.

I edited the above post as you were posting. I totally agree.
Bows can do lots of damage when handled correctly. I think 50lbs (for a hand bow, 150 for a crossbow; due to the draw distance) is the (minimal) draw weight you should be using if you want to hunt large (deer, etc) game and get one shot kills where the arrow will go straight through the game animal.

(Sorry for posting on a almost one month old thread) Other gun? What other gun? Scare Soaker? Edit: Nvm it's the Red Hawk.

I would love to have bows in the game. Every game where there is a bow choice that is the weapon I use.

^ This I'd love to see more ranged options in the game.

[Doc Savage]

Don't think the Church could/would/should be selling weapons. They state early on they're against violence, to then turn around and sell Bows because they aren't "technological" makes no sense. Heck, Bows not being Tech makes no sense, they're quite the opposite.

Love to see Bows be a crafting item though. Basic Bow, Heavy bow and then Crossbow. Gives you something to need feathers for aside from dusters for making the arrows. Crossbows could use metal bolts as an upgrade as well. Metal tips anyway.

A lot of possibility. Shame ranged weapons in the game are fecal matter ATM. They shouldn't be. Make them expensive but make them viable so more people will enjoy the dungeon runs. As it is now they aren't really worth it no matter what Lee and Nora wanna think about them.

The Rep hit is minimal BTW. A couple chats and a decent gift and it's like it never happened...

Cheers..!

Thank god it just once. Got this mail after shooting it once inside the last level of Ingall's Mine. Who told them? Jesus, Buddha?

Seriously, even though wasn't a big hit on the relationship, was pretty lame!

I was better, shot it right in front of the priest xD But all in all they are against most technology and since the shotgun is a weapon made by technology they would be against it even being made. Still kinda creepy they know about it if you don't show it to them or fire it off nearby to them or anyone else from town.
Also nice 5month old necro :P
