Arrow FLETCHINGS

[Boston123]

So, I just found the bow and arrow up at Katie's Secluded Corner (btw, very nice up there, guys, good work!), and I noticed something that I've never noticed before, much to my chagrin.

The arrows require three feathers to fletch, but the in-game arrows only have two feathers. So, either the character is nocking the arrows the ENTIRELY wrong way (with a fletching smacking into the bowstave, which could explain our horrible accuracy ), or ..... the arrows just have two fletchings.

...

What the hell?

Not that I am complaining: "two-fletch" arrows are perfectly viable in real life, and I actually prefer them over the "more traditional" "three-fletch" arrows, because the two feathers cause less drag, and at the ranges I use them (15 yards or less), they don't "wobble" any more than triangle-fletched arrows. This method is called the "Eastern Two-Fletch", and is rather attractive and easy to do, especially compared to the "triangle fletch", which is really easy to get cock-eyed if you don't have a jig.

My main point here is: if we require a certain number of resources to make something, can the number of resources actually be what is found on the object? No need for three feathers if we are only going to use two.....
