If you use soul arrow with diamond arrows in your inv does the attack of the diamond arrows go onto the soul arrows? Thank you for replying =D

Soul arrow doesnt use the attack of the arrows, so its like shooting 0 att arrows.

Even if the arrows do affect soul arrow, you'll barely see a difference. >.>

It does work, i can see the difference with just red arrows in the INV than with normal arrows.

Im not sure if it works with diamond. I use red arrows, because i heard a rumor that diamond arrows wont stack with soul arrow. They have the same attack anyways

NO. It's been proven again and again that the damage boost you see is only a client-sided visual glitch, and the monsters will still be taking damage as if you had 0 Att arrows. Read the Bowman FAQ's .

[quote] Podolski : Yes, yes it does my friend. I'll confirm w/screenshots if u need me to. [/quote] It does not. On client side it appears that the attack from diamond arrows stacks with soul arrow (meaning that, the numbers that YOU see is damage applied with the att from diamond arrows); however, the numbers that OTHER players see, as well as the actual damage the monster takes is the damage dealt as if the arrows are 0 att. This is a common misconception. There is proof of this in the Bowman guide. It's something like a monster with 3000 hp survives a hit of 3001 damage, with soul arrow + diamond arrows (not the same numbers, but demonstrating this concept) Edit: It turns out less people understand this than I realized. Its not just your damage range that is augmented, but the damage you SEE yourself doing to monsters is also larger; however, this effect is only cleint-sided, meaning that the damage you see is different than what the server registers, and therefore what other players see. If you take screenshots of yourself, it looks as though the damage is actually augmented, but in reality it is not. This is a glitch on nexons part that either they don't know about, or they don't care.

The game calculates your Att range shown in the Character window and the damage you actually do seperately. The Character window implies that you keep the Att bonus, but you still do damage as if you had normal arrows equipped.
