Every single player in my games, when they have the range, they use it. The shorter range is always significant when a) You don't have to worry about your weapon breaking or losing it or b] when someone else has a bow or the like.Just look at the ranges and you should see why I don't have a problem with arrows priced the way they are. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />I don't have my copy of Silver Marches with me right now, and I'm not interested in doing the math right this second, so how much do you end up saving in XP by rounding down?</blockquote>
