[QUOTE="Amator, post: 304021, member: 6579"] Why couldn't they? With arrows, bolts, and perhaps darts you have the chance of breaking the shaft, but daggers and shurikens are all metal. I've thrown a lot of axes, knives, and shurikens in my day, and occasionally you will nick the edges or bend part of the blade, but that's easily fixed. When I had to retire a thrown weapon, it wasn't because I broke the weapon by hitting something other than my target, it was because I missed my target and couldn't find my weapon. Shuriken are very light weight...if I wanted to be a shuriken master, I'd max out craft: arms and armor and forge new ones whenever I have time in a settlement. Carry 20 or so in a specially made vest designed for that purpose, and bunch of others bunded together in my pack. For daggers, you can use the same approach, but they weigh more, so you wouldn't be able to carry as many. If you make them yourself, the cost isn't very much, especially when you consider the only material you need for both is steel, which is easily salvaged. In my experience playing characters with throwing weapons, the range increment all depends on how you use it. I like to have a tumbling shuriken master who is always on the edge of battle leading the enemies into the real tanks instead of being the bullseye for any ranged weapons or spells your foes have by waiting in the back. When you attack a group that has an archer/spellcaster in the back, most people concentrate their forces on that person in the back. It can be a blessing or a curse. [/QUOTE]
