Limited Ammo(Discussion)

Rangers and Paragons have an endless supply of arrows and spears. Make it so rangers have about 200 arrows kept for fighting, and paragons have 2 or 3 spears which have to be picked up (and perhaps use them as a melee weapon when they pick them up.)

Why this is a good idea
  •   It would create a more realistic tinge to the combat mechanics of the game. Maybe there would be a Quiver for arrows and a Sling for spears, and they can be upgraded to hold more and more arrows/spears.


Why it may not work out
  •   Adds a chore.
  •   May be hard to do on large scale battles
  •   causes a very imbalanced style of play
  •   i dunno if this has been said but ... adds a chore?
  •   this isnt rs
  • Forces people to grind so they can afford arrows and spears
  • Paragons are probably not going to be in Guild Wars 2
  • Unfair to ranged attackers. They already have to spend energy on their attacks, what more do you want?
  •   Realism is a retarded reason to change mechanics in a videogame.
  • Hammerspace
  •   You are dead if you run out of arrows.
  • i dunno if this has been said but ... this isnt runescape?
  • why should ranged attackers have to deal with the "realism" of limited arrows when you can shoot fireballs out of your hand and raise the dead?
  • If I wanted 2 need ammo, I would play Maple Story n Runscape XD
  • Arrows, spears, and all other projectiles CAN be dodged. Even skills like Lightning Orb and Stone Daggers can be dodged. What's to say a player wont just sit there and dodge another player's projectiles all day and effectively cause them to run out of arrows/spears?
