Tar Barrel Ammo Worthwhile?

Postby Reviresco » Tue Dec 29, 2015 6:50 pm

Just wondering. I'd rather make anvils if they're not that amazing.

You could shoot yourself with one and find out :). They do have a preferred benefit if your expectation is to engage or chase down your aggressor.

Ah, well I'm a hermit so I guess I'll just stick with anvils. Thanks.

Edit: Then again, it would make it a lot easier to hit people with other things. How powerful is the snare effect (I"m assuming that's what it inflicts)? 50%? 25%?

No

But he already gave away the mechanic, he said it was if you wish to engage or chase someone down, and tar is usually difficult to move through.

It most definitely works like a musket/pistol shot or fractured bone where it would slow the players movement down.

There should be a show where they just let a bunch of caffeined-up 3 year olds run around in there until something bad happens.
