    Most likely this. I generally buy ammo in 10k bulk.

    lol yeah, ammo is cheap. and as you get higher level and have more crit percent - you could use the 2 cent / arrow ones and hardly notice a difference. Prior to that though, having the higher +attack ammo will help you kill stuff before it gets to you.

    it means you have less then 500 arrows.



    I usually buy in bulk of 5-25k just so i don't run outta arrows for quiet some time.

    well of course for you being higher level, the difference of +2 attack and +45 attack wouldn't make much difference at all when you likely have an average attack value around 10k. In lower levels with lower crit rate - i can tell a difference between cheap shot and explosive shot.

    At higher levels, the extra +43 weapon damage you get would be thrown into a higher dex, higher level blazing arrow, higher level bow mastery and doubled more often from our higher level crit. As far as damage goes, higher levels should in theory have more benifit from this shouldn't they?

    The raw damage add from the arrows should be higher at higher lvls however the % in overall dmg increase will be lower.

    i dont understand why archers buy the +45 attack arrows.. i forgot how much a +45 is. but i do know it hella adds up when you buy 50k +45 arrows. and honestly i cant tell the difference!

    maybe im a broke **** its why i cant tell the difference between arrows. i can only tell the difference between cheap and expensive b:surrender

    Personally, I just run through Eden and higher level instances when I want to farm higher damage arrows. Especially since most squads don't mind giving me the extra ammo and I get the bonus of other drops so I'm making some coin while I do it.



    The main reason you'd buy high-end ammo though is for PvP since every little bit helps there.

    I buy highest grade arrows for PvP and TW. If you're gonna pay millions for a garnet gem for +75 attack doesn't it make sense to do the same with arrows? o_O

    Solution:

    1. Buy Lv1 arrows (e.g. Woven Fang Arrows) in 10k bulk.

    2. Keep a dedicated slot in your inventory for a stack of your current "dropped" arrows (e.g. Phoenix Tail Arrows).

    3. Switch to the stronger arrows only during special situations, when you need to do more damage quickly (although I'm with everyone else here - I don't even notice a difference). PVP would be one such reason.



    Personally, I have an entire row of my 1-9 bar dedicated to weapons and ammo types. I recently added a Windcatcher and a W&C to my inventory just for giggles (and alternatives to my Vast Land for when I feel bored)... and currenly I'm burning my stack of lv2 ammo (Iron Bolt/Lead Shot) with those new weps. When the lv2 ammo runs out, I will buy lv1 ammo to replace it. And then, I have three dedicated spots for lv3 ammo, one for each weapon.

    Yes, I'm still a stubborn holdout in favor of the old game. Haters gonna hate. ;]

    Like everyone said,

    Buy/Use only Lvl 1 Arrows.
    Stock up on Arrows you pick up from Quests, BH, FB's, etc.
    Use higher Lvl Arrows only for PvP/TW

    I buy Lvl 1 Arrows in 50k Bulk [100k coins]. 50k is the max you can have equipped. They will last you a long while.
    I don't buy any other Arrows except Lvl 1. I have Stocked 60k Phoenix Arrows and 5k Dragotenna Arrows solely from drops. b:pleased
