Seeker Arrows (in General)

I think the amount of seeker arrows in spawns and/or the frequency of seeker arrows spawns should be increased because.... there aren't enough.

How many is not enough? There are three large bundles in there right now; and as for normal spawns, we've had these in the past two days:

I think there are plenty spawning; just too many people buying them... ;)

Sure,

Lets spawn more disposable items that completely neutralizes a mages wall minion and all its NW.

How about let us decrease the seeker spawn rate and give mages a fair chance?

And to preempt others from saying it (you know who you are), I surely say this to give myself an unfair advantage.

I don't seem to be able to edit my first post so here's some more info.


If I were to spend all my BA of the day (not including buying any), then I'd be in 1296 fights (not including defenses) where I use about 8 arrows per fight->10368 arrows/day. Obviously, I don't fight 1296 times every day, and my 8 arrows/fight is because my dex is so much higher than the mages I fight (as well as because of my HoC).
Although 10368 arrows have spawned in the last 24 hours (enough to fuel ~4 tanks) there are occasional droughts (in February no arrows spawned between the 22-27) and most days have a lot less arrows spawned. Anyways, my (very roundabout) point is that tanks are severely disadvantaged because the number of arrows available limits the number of fights we can have.

If you have to have seekers to fight properly, then your strategy needs improvement.

Seekers are specialized ammo that are very controversial in CB. Depending on disposable ammo is not advised, at least by me.

As you obviously know, I would prefer that seekers just went away. And I do not think I am in a small minority that feel this way.

Seeker arrows are a ''plus'' over normal ones, just like slayers and such. I don't think their spawn rates are designed for you and tanks to be able to use them 100% of the time, as they are very deadly already.

I guess I hadn't really thought ahead, Popsicle Man and Ashilizator both being right, that seeker arrows do provide a humongous adv. over mages although my tank doesn't really have any other way to combat mages since Mage Shields and Elven Hauberks, besides being very expensive, would also require me to remove my ToA.
