Would it be possible to get someone to teach fletching and bowyering?

I'm thinking about it, but haven't made up my mind about whether it should be guild exclusive or not.

I don't think it should be exclusive. Archers of any persuasion should be able to craft their own stuff. Udemi, having focus on archery, should have some benefits to the skills somehow, though. Or maybe some unique arrowheads, things like that.

Never thought the skill should be exclusive, maybe just a trainer. Then the Udemi could teach other players. Just my thoughts.

And now, there are turkeys that drop feathers. These feathers can be CUT into fletchings, which can in turn be used on your arrows. So now it will cost you nothing to make arrows, other than your time to get the supplies.

And yes, more feather dropping creatures are in the works.

Where can you get sinews from in the wild?

Basically any other animal (wolves/bears) last I checked.

By butchering them, to clarify.

Can you make it so we can bundle sinew?

Rithiel · Post by **Rithiel** » Sat Sep 10, 2011 6:05 pm

You can now bundle sinew. You can also CUT SINEW into multiple pieces for use in fletching. Of course, this only applies to new pieces of sinew. Your old ones will still be, well, old.

The same applies for feathers. When you CUT FEATHERS, you will not make multiple sets of fletchings.

Alanna now has a variety of paint colors that can be applied to your fletched arrows. This must be done after carving the arrow but before cutting the nock.

I want black paint! Two reasons: 1) Black is the coolest color. 2) All other colors are less cool.

Black paint exists, you'll just have to figure out who to bribe to get some.
