    Default Darts as Ammunition

    Does anyone see any problem with making darts ammunition? I never understood why it costs more to create one +1 dart than it is to create one +5 Shocking Returning arrow, nor why it's faster to fire a bow than to throw a dart.

    They treat darts as small javelins instead of small arrows. Some were made as thinned fletched javelins I believed.


    Darts don't break like javelins.
    Darts are thrown like 'em.

    And are functionally shuriken, not darts.

    Yes, DND darts are like lawn darts (which were outlawed years ago for being too dangerous). What you are describing are bo-shuriken. Sort of long sharpened spikes. Shuriken are considered ammunition for enchanting purposes.
