    If you craft arrows you got a 10% chance to make one with +1% Crit rate, they also drops off FB bosses

    If you just wear them you won't, start attacking with them and they will be used

    That 1% will only work when you use them with a bow. So it will have no impact when you use your skills, unless you are an archer.

    you are right except that the 1% crit arrow still work, even if you are not archer.

    All you need to do is to use the arrows with a bow, it does not matter the class.

    You just need to buy a cheap bow equip it temporarily so that you can put the +1 crit arrow in the ammo slot. Then remove the bow and re-equip your magic weapon.

    The +1 crit arrow stays in place and so does your +1 crit stat boost. Just check your Character stats and you will see the increase.

    It may be in your stats, but it won't be in your results in combat. They've made it clear that even if it did work (it doesn't!) that it would be considered cheating.

    We're not allowed to use the crit arrows in this version?

    Can you provide a link to a post that says that. Thx.

    Also, are you sure it doesn't work? Anyone really tested it?

    Yes, lots of people have tested it. It only works when the ammo gets used, which means you would have to fire to arrow to work, and only for that fired arrow.


    OMGLAZERZ did a test on those things and there was a thread about it long time ago.

    Edited: thanks Fireblood for linking thread so I could correct the name of the person who did the testing.

    Thx that's good to know. I won't waste space carrying the arrow and bow in the future.

    It is amazing how many people don't know this and keep passing it along as a tip.

    As for the crit arrow thing, it doesn't actually work. Official GM word is, if it actually worked, it would've been a bannable offence.
