Why is this both martial and exotic? --Ghostwheel (talk) 10:44, 26 April 2019 (MDT)
- Good point. I will have to think about this. I may change the exotic weapon from a type to a property. --Rlyehable (talk) 06:54, 3 May 2019 (MDT)
- I actually changed exotic weapon from a weapon type to a weapon property. I also changed the weapon type to Simple, since all of the ammunition is simple. --Rlyehable (talk) 09:39, 3 May 2019 (MDT)
- Why is this an exotic weapon? From a realistic perspective, it's one of the most simple tools for increasing the strength of spears and javelins, and just about anyone can make use of one to improve the power of their throw.
- From a mechanical perspective, this pushes such weapons into the realm of martial, rather than simple.
- Because of these reasons (mostly the latter one), I would recommend removing the exotic property, and adding the martial one instead. --Ghostwheel (talk) 09:56, 3 May 2019 (MDT)
