An archer can enchant a bow, and buy normal arrows (50/1Gp). So every shot costs him 2Cp. But a thrower must enchant ammo directly (if using shuriken). That's 2,151Gp / 50, or 43.02Gp per shot. With a 50% break chance, make it 21.51Gp per shot.If the game is really going to be a low money game, can you (literally) throw that much money away? Of course, it just gets worse when you are talking +2 (41.51Gp/shot) or +3 (91.51Gp/shot). I played in a group with a thrower recently, and he just had to give up at around 8th level because he just couldn't afford to buy all that ammo. He went to daggers, but iut was nearly as bad because while the other PC's needed a single +1 weapon, he needed something like 5 +2 weapons (+1 returning) just to keep up; and even with all that he was still doing 1D4+4 Dmg. (so he was useless against DR)Sorry I can't help more.  -Tatsu</blockquote>
