Snowflakes and other shuriken

I don't know what anyone else feels about this... but I feel that the snowflakes and other shuriken should become more accurate with less PT. They do such low damage and it's cut damage at that, also they're very small projectiles. It's unreasonable to make them ineffective until you have around 6+ PT for them to be reliably accurate. By the time anyone reaches that much power throw, they're going to want to use something more useful. As such, I believe they should simply become reasonably accurate at around 4-5 PT.

What does everyone else think?

I mostly agree, the price is just not worth it, other than for the lulz, or the style. Even daggers are more accurate, and have more damage. It's quite disappointing. :/

Throwing has been changed. You now get more accurate by spending proficiency points in throwing, rather than by adding Power Throw. Try spending around 100 points or so in WPF for it, and see if it helps.

Oh... well then I'll have to see how the difference in wpf makes an effect. Thank you for the advice... hopefully it won't be a waste of points :P

Regardless, in my opinion, these should be the MOST accurate throwing weapons in the game. Simply due to balance (super low cut damage) and logic...

Another thing I don't understand. The 4 and 6 points shurikens are completely pointless. If someone is going to use shurikens they would save for snowflakes.

No item should be there just for RP lulz... It should be a valid item.

It'd be useful for stopping runners and killing lightly armored archers at short range because you can throw faster than them.

It's simply too inaccurate for what it is. Increase accuracy, get.

If the accuracy is increaced the speed must fall so we dont have people being sniped across the map.

I don't want it increased to pin point accuracy. Just enough that you can use it effectively at short to medium range.
