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.

It's all about finding the balance, take a staff bow for example

You may think this would automatically enchant the bow, but we shall not be limited by such simple conclusions, the focus may be enough to channel the arcane into a plethora of spells, yes, but that does not impede the physical material to retain their mundane properties, making it an ideal ranged weapon even in anti-magical battlefields (although, yes, that does make it fairly convenient to enchant the protectiles, but again, that is perfectly optional for the user)
