## About The Pull Request Title. Introduces a new bow and 2 new arrows: The hardlight bow, and the blunt/taser arrows. You can acquire these items via a new primary security voucher. This kit gives you one bow, one quiver with 9 blunt and 1 taser, a hatchet, and a book that teaches you how to build these arrows. **You do not gain the ability to craft lethal arrows roundstart. You have to order the book from cargo.** You can also order a kit of 2 quivers and 2 bows from cargo. The quivers have a mix of lethal and nonlethal arrows. They cost a little less than a crate of 3 laser guns, so this is generally a suboptimal choice. ## The bow Like all bows, it is bulky, and fits only in suit storage. Unlike other bows, it is not weak against armor, and can cause wounds. It is a hardlight bow - its string is made out of energy. You can obtain this bow via a voucher or cargo. The bow itself is also an appreciable weapon, doing 11 blunt damage (this is prone to change on review - this was inherited from the base bow). ## The arrows ### Blunt The blunt arrow is the simplest arrow. 35 stamina, 5 brute, 3 hits to down. Craftable the same way a normal arrow is. Reusable. Causes dislocations if fired in close quarters. ### Taser You only spawn with one taser arrow roundstart. 5 stamina guaranteed, 40 and knockdown if the target isnt electrically insulated. Not reusable. Craftable like a normal arrow, but with a igniter, cable, and a cell. **This recipe is prone to change on review, as I feel it might be a bit easy to make for its power, but I dont know what to add to make it truely expensive.** Both of these arrows can only be crafted if you have the fletching book, or an arrow to convert. This PR also locks bronze arrows to ashies and hearthkin exclusively, as they are too powerful for their ease of crafting. Upgrading your arrows to bone should take time and effort. ## Why It's Good For The Game Well, A, I have a character that does bowsec, and as it stands, its kinda useless. The arrows are too weak and fail on all armor. Bronze arrows do THREE DAMAGE on a redsuit. THREE. B., it adds a fairly unique way to play ranged security. Bows just - function differently. You have to load each arrow manually, pick up your dropped arrows, and deal with a relatively choked quiver (if you want to deal with the quiver at all). You also have to craft your own arrows, seek out another fletching book for lethal arrows... its a more involved playstyle if you really want to go full bowman. C. Flavor. Some characters. like my own, prefer more... traditional methods of dealing with people. Bows, spears, cudgels, clubs. I should note, this kit will be somewhat underpowered in actual combat. Running around, trying to load your bow while under fire, is very difficult, especially because the disabler generally has a higher DPS anyway. I do think thats fine, as it is more of a sidegrade in the same way the pepperball is, but if maintainers request, I could possibly increase the damage this bow deals or some variation to make it worth using. ## Proof Of Testing <details> <summary>Screenshots/Videos</summary> <img width="1879" height="526" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/91ab9832-cc2d-4355-ad85-654611c8c66d" /> https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d2697261-2b13-4f4e-9288-4a1a2fe1d134 </details> ## Changelog 🆑 add: A new security voucher - the archery kit, that gives you a bow that penetrates armor and causes wounds, as well as some less-lethal arrows add: An armory cargo order with two powerful bows and quivers with lethal and nonlethal arrows add: Two new less-lethal arrows craftable via the fletching book and blacksmithing balance: Bronze arrows can now only be crafted by ashies and hearthkin /🆑
