    This is a idea I have had for a while and I think its a good idea.
    I am so sorry if this was in the things already suggested list (I did not see it when I last check the list)

    So its a mine arrow, A mine arrow is basically an arrow that when it hits the ground people that walk on it will get blown up. If it hits a player then it will be just like a bomb arrow. I think this is a really good idea and I would love to make sprites for it.

    As for the cost, it should be 10 more coins than a normal mine.

    What do you think?

  2. I think it would be a pretty pointless and annoying item. Essentially it's a bomb arrow that turns into a mine if you miss someone.

    Archers can use mines as knights use them, you know that, right?

    I know but I thought being able to shoot them more easily is handy plus, mine arrows will be more hidden.

    More hidden? I think it is easier to stand at a bush and drop a mine, then shooting a mine across half the map and then it lands just where the bush is.

    Well maybe it would be a good idea to implement mine shooting working the same way as shooting burgers

    If these mines didn't stick to walls, I'm okay with it.
    It could arm after landing, not mid-air.

    at first glance i thought this was crazy but after reading all the responses wouldnt it be a better suggestion to have sticky bombs that cost 75ishcoins for knights and explosive timed sticky arrows for archer :O(would it be balanced?)

    You should post anot
    You should post another thread instead of posting your idea in this thread.

    well since the op admited his idea wasnt good after thinking about it i figured post here since the thread is now pointless
     
  14. I just don't see the point in adding another item that needs to be tested and balanced when archers can already use regular mines

    ....No.
    The spam would be fucking enormous.
    You're getting something that does a bomb arrow's worth of damage on hit with the added advantage of turning into a mine if you miss, all for 70 coins - which an experienced archer can rack up easily.
    Imagine it - all you would get practically every game is a group of archers raining mine/bomb arrow combos into your base, and since people in KAG seem to have tunnel vision 24/7 they're bound to set off tons of mines.

    I like this Idea of shooting mines into the others team base with being in the other teams base

    if a archer shot you would it bounce of or explode on contact so basically dose it arm when you shoot it or after a certain time?

    I think it would be a good idea as long as the explosion was very small, it didn't stick to anything, and didn't arm midair. It would also have to be a little costly or it would be used so often it wouldn't even be funny anymore.
