Bugfix: All weapons should now be poisonable


All weapons? Say it isn't so, Drocket man!

hum ,yes you can posion anything even a staff.
but whats wierd is you can posion a bow but not arrows...

That is probly due to how it is scripted, and a good thing as well since poisoning individual arrows or bolts would be rather costly and time consuming since you would have to poison each missile with a individual potion. The end result is the same, poison the bow, and it lasts for so many arrows. If you took a potion and soaked a number of arrows they would last about as long as the poison on the bow lasts. Though I admit it is odd to poison the bows.
AHHHH it just came to me, Drocket scripted a small vail that fits inside the bows near the buisness end. You are not "poisoning" the bows so much as filling the vial so that the missile rubs on the poison soaked pad similar to a bingo marker as it is fired. Once in a while ya gotta refill the applicator. See it isn't so strange after all. lol

posiong the bow does nothing to the arrows .

he could do the posion arrows like flame arrows a posion bottle does 100 arrows

You can't poison a creature with it you have to poison the arrows not the bow and sence you can't poison the arrows you can't poison a creature.
