Degraded condition on newly crafted arrows

Recommended Posts

Was crafting a new arrow at the workbench, and when I checked my inventory afterwards I noticed that the new arrow didn't have 100% condition. I thought it kinda made sense, as I had harvested the arrowhead from a broken arrow and thought maybe the arrowhead was degraded from previous use.

Later I crafted another arrow, all parts 100% condition, but the arrow turned out to have 49% condition, the same as the least used arrow already in my inventory. Reloaded the game, threw all my arrows on the floor so I didn't have any left in my inventory, crafted a new arrow, and ta-da! New arrow has 100% condition!:)

TLDR: Newly crafted arrows doesn't get 100% condition if there's used arrows in your inventory, instead they get the same condition as the least degraded arrow.

Confirmed bug ... 4 newly crafted arrows joined a 5th one on 2% :cry:

I already had another arrow with a higher percentage.

So I disagree with 'least'. Changed to 'most'.

Had to go to transition zone to find the birch and now this happens! :x

Personally I think finished condition should be a bit random (not 100%) because the character isn't exactly making them with absolute precision or top of the line appropriate tools, nor are they necessarily skilled bow/arrow craftsmen [as can be seen by the nice simplicity of the bow and arrows]...

Makes sense that they would be hard pressed to make perfect condition versions each time... likewise with other crafted items.

However I do agree that 2% for a fresh one is a bit low... I mean I could probably even make one at least 3% given enough tries [yeah, wife and daughter wanted to submit me for Canada's Worst Handyman show]... I would have hard enough time tying a bow, let alone making one :lol:

re the bug: arrows were being crafted at the same condition as the lowest condition one already in stock, but I think they're fixing that for the next update. For now, best to drop all arrows (unless you have a great condition one) while making new arrows until it is fixed.
