Whaddya mean radius? Cuz those things can go anywhere they want basically, even up a friggin' ladder (as I've experienced back when I got pit-baited).troopas wrote: ↑Fri Apr 29, 2022 3:52 pmWell you also have to consider the short radius of the homing arrow. It's actually quite small and could increase greatly with each upgrade to make it more worthwhile. That along with what you suggested could make this addition worth itFlashlight237 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 29, 2022 3:21 pmYes, but they have a higher attack rate still (132 uses per minute vs 90), so it kinda evens out (especially when you literally don't have to aim or waltz up to anything; you just kinda camp, especially when the arrows can just fly to the next living opponent when the one you attacked dies).

It has a radius in which it flies at the nearest target.Flashlight237 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 29, 2022 3:55 pmWhaddya mean radius?

The radius is also quite small and you need to actually be near your target. I'm pretty sure you can shoot arrow heard farther than the actual radius of arrow homing

Because once it locks on its impossible to escape lolFlashlight237 wrote: ↑Fri Apr 29, 2022 4:58 pmGuy who got hit by a homing shot near the top of the ladder while trying to escape The Pit here, no ya don't!
Edit: you can see in my original pvp video Troopas vs Ant that there is indeed, a radius and the target has to be pretty dance close for them to lock on (and once they do its difficult if not actually impossible to escape)
