Bolts Armor Penetration - Mr_Moustashio - 23-03-2014
Bronze bolts and onyx bolts seems quite pointless for their high prices, paying an extra 1.5 mill for +3 damage and X mill for +8 damage when compared to gold bolts. I suggest nerfing the marketplace bolts armor penetration to 10%, bronze to 15% then leave onyx at 20% or +5 on all those %'s cause who wouldn't want stronger crossbows. Atleast then it would make the bolts more useful apart from the nice aesthetics upgrade.

Support.

I support this as well.

While I would like to see this as well, I'm not sure it's quite as simple. All items can be given certain "flags" by the game, or attributes, so to say. There's a flag for an item being a 2 handed weapon, a flag for crush through, etc. There is also one that adds extra penetration, and does so by ignoring 20% of your target's armor. I could be wrong here, but I don't think it's possible to mod in additional flags, that add, say, 15% extra penetration.

Instead of nerfing everything else, how about just buffing the other bolts.
Gold bolts are pretty weak already.

also keep in mind it is not only +3 damage, you gain damage bonuses from your strength aswell as from your profency, so it is rather about 20 more damage .

The strength factor does not effect the damage of crossbows.

seems a tad unfair given that their is only one set of craftable bolts available at the moment which is a big jump in costs and stats from the marketplace ones. before nerfing gold bolts perhaps new "mid-tier" bolts should be added to compensate? or just make gold bolts craftable and leave t4 crossbow with t3 bolts ?

Atleast then it would make the bolts more useful apart from the nice aesthetics upgrade.But you always pay a lot for only a small bonus when you replace a weapon of yours. You can't just ask for a buff for everything... Legendaries don't have to be much better than other weapons. Anyway if onyx were buffed, you would have to buy them for a much higher price... I believe onyx are currently well balanced.
Maybe a super-secret new legendary pack of bolts could be added additionally...
