General Rules (Projectile Weapons)
Projectile Weapons represent anything that is typically launched or thrown to inflict damage or effects, such as arrows, kunai, chakrams, and tomahawks as well as magical blasts like fireballs and lightning. The following general rules apply to all forms of projectile weapons:
- May not be used to parry, block, or strike in melee.
- Cannot become destroyed by any means.
- May be carried in any number unless otherwise restricted, such as by class customization.
- All projectiles except Arrows and Bolts must be thrown by hand, one at a time.
- Arrows and Bolts must be fired from a bow or crossbow as appropriate.
- Each projectile can affect multiple targets in a single flight as long as each contact meets the criteria for a valid strike. Projectiles become harmless after their initial movement is completely halted.
- Projectiles must be blocked passively by placing an object in their flight path. Batting or otherwise adding significant momentum to a projectile in motion is prohibited and intentionally doing so can result in suspension from play.
- Projectiles may not be shared, fired, or thrown by anyone other than their owner unless given explicit permission from said owner.
- The owner is responsible for the safety of their projectiles even when used by another player.
- All projectiles must be labelled with their name.
- Color-Coded Projectiles may never be shared.
- There are two sub-types of projectile weapon: Contact Projectiles and Stabbing Projectiles.
Projectile Weapons Contact Projectiles: Small Thrown · Large Thrown · Spellball · Rocks · Javelins
Stabbing Projectiles: Javelin · Bows & Crossbows · Arrows & Bolts
