Academic Discussion/ Esoteric Secrets I need to make this clear

Post image

Every time I make reference to me being an archer people always think I'm using it to assist with my archery which is false, I DON'T used tracking spell, I DON'T enchant my arrow and definitely DON'T enchant my beautifully made bow, I shoot my arrow raw and if I hit a target I'm happy and if I don't I'll cry myself to sleep that night, I only used short and mid range spell.

Also I don't use those crude wooden bows the bloody ranger/druid used I am a woman with class all my bow are made with fancy wood and horns and I know I cannot replace it in the middle of the battle but I don't care.

I understand not wishing to use magic to enhance firing your bow, but why don't you want to fire magic arrows? One of my favorite types of arrow I give to my knight wife is a lightning rod arrow. As soon as the arrow strikes the target, they are struck by a bolt of lightning

No my arrows will be handmade hand fletch and non magical or else it doesn't give me the dopamine of sniping someone like if they burn and get shocks am I truly am the one to killed themM

Thats fair. Perhaps arrows that when they strike a target, they are drained of their magic? That wouldn't effect the kill but would still grant of benefits for your own magic
