Nexus Clash

I just noticed that Fred Dullard has 11 not-very-useful arrows in his inventory. I'm not sure exactly how I ended up here, unfortunately, but these pesky arrows have refused to magically transform themselves into a useful Quiver of Arrows. It's probably a judgement on Fred for attempting to use Advanced Archery (or indeed any archery at all) instead of proper thrown weapons, but there you are.

Did you try dropping them till you have nine arrows, then picking them up?

I vaguely recall something like this happening. Didn't make a post. I fixed it some way; probably that way.

I mean, still a bug.

I unloaded a 1-arrow bow, and the 11 arrows turned into 3 arrows and a quiver. I would have expected 2 arrows, so the 3 arrows seems like Another Bug. Perhaps I inadvertently invented the invisible Thirteenth Arrow. All this archery and arithmetic is making Fred even more determined to enforce the Advanced Thrown Weapons requirement.

I went and looked at Fred's message log, just to be sure I wasn't imagining it all:

- You remove your 1 Arrows from your Long Bow. There are enough arrows for you to create a new quiver, which you add to your inventory. (2025-01-16 19:16:29).
- You reload your Long Bow with your Quiver of Arrows. (2025-01-16 19:16:39).

So yes, started with 11, removed 1 from the bow, result 3 arrows and a quiver.

Thirteenth Arrow sounds like an interesting name for a Skill...
