I recall reading that in order to place any magical effects upon a weapon that the weapon in question must have at least a +1 enchantment bonus first in order to receive any further magical properties.
That being said, can I assume that if I found a magical arrow of Charming (Cupid's Arrow) has to have an implied att/dam bonus of +1? Additionally, we also found another odd arrow. This one transforms from one arrow when shot to 10 arrows in flight. I have two questions about this:
1) Would all 10 arrows be considered to have the +1 att/dam bonus since the original would have to in order to contain the other enchantment and since the arrow transforms in mid flight (already benefiting from the att bonus)?
2) Is this arrow my Rogue's dream come true for a massive sneak attack? Would it require 1 roll to hit or 10 rolls to hit? Would he get sneak attack damage on all 10 arrows? If all of these are answered yes look at the possibilities:
10 +1 Arrows = 20-70HP Dam.
10 sneak attacks (2D6) = 20-120 Dam.
Critical = 40-140Dam + Sneak Attack.
Ouch!!!
