That's kind of a powerful ability, though, and Obsidian is just sharp. It's not any more forceful than another arrow.The Obsidian Arrow should, instead of increased critical strike chance, ignore part of the target´s defence. That way, it would be more versatile.
when it comes to arrows, the ability to puncture armor is inborn. the ability to now lose power when piercing armor however depends on the sharpness of the arrowheadThat's kind of a powerful ability, though, and Obsidian is just sharp. It's not any more forceful than another arrow.
Given that increased damage is essentially the same as ignoring defense, it would need a better reason than that to get a special armor-ignoring ability over other arrows. If any kind of arrow should get the ability to ignore armor, it would have to be some sort of Spectral arrow.when it comes to arrows, the ability to puncture armor is inborn. the ability to now lose power when piercing armor however depends on the sharpness of the arrowhead
Not necessarily. If it uses a fraction of the defence, it could be more effective on heavily-armored enemies than on lightly-armored ones. Admittingly, that wouldn´t be very noticeable in some situations, but would still make crafting them worthwhile the moment HM begins, considering that, otherwise, Hellfire arrows would replace them a bit too quickly, which are more obsidian-efficient to buy/craft, while Unholy Arrows would be more effective for most of the game due to both being about as easy to obtain, but Unholy Arrows don´t require obsidian and can be bought.That's kind of a powerful ability, though, and Obsidian is just sharp.

It's the same one that drops from bosses and Heart Statues, and occasionally from normal enemies.what does the heart do though?
ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhIt's the same one that drops from bosses and Heart Statues, and occasionally from normal enemies.
It still requires Jungle Spores, which are ingredients for weapons much more powerful than this one.Great suggestion as Always
But if you Blast mine Obsidian like me...it is too Powerful at its Tier...
