So I have given a waywatcher noble a magic bow and magic arrows. I know that if i fire the magic arrows I lose lethal shot but can i chose to fire normal arrows thus keeping lethal shot?
Swift answers would be great as the battle is about to begin?
Cheers.

Re: Magic arrows and normal arrows?
Theres a rule that states a chharacter must use their magical gear over their mundane gear so no. Might aswell drop him to scout and save pts

Re: Magic arrows and normal arrows?
So would I still get the lethal shot special rule if i'm firing normal arrows from a magic bow?

Actually, that was only referring to Magical Weapons specifically. In this case though, because they have a magical bow (magic weapon) they must use the bow when shooting and always shoot magical arrows, as is referenced by the Wood Elf FAQ.SeanyPrawny wrote:Theres a rule that states a chharacter must use their magical gear over their mundane gear so no.

If they only had magical arrows they would be able to pick and choose whether or not they wanted to fire a normal (Lethal due to Waywatcher Kindred) or a magical arrow when firing.WE FAQ wrote:Q. Do arrows fired by a magic bow count as magical attacks? (p62)
A. Yes.
Well, my ideas for the next book turned out to be a bust.
But it was still fun working on something of this scale.

Many people failed to realize that the rule of "I must use magical gear over mundane one" apply only on magical WEAPONS. There is no such rule for magical armor, enchanted items, talismans nor arcane items.
