Daedric bow damage has dropped

Post » Sun Dec 11, 2011 10:26 am

So I'm really confused on this. When I first crafted my Daedric bow, the base damage was 49. I'm improved to Ledendary, which boosted it to 79. Then way later on in the game while I was browsing my inventory, I noticed the damage had dropped to 63, for what appears to be no reason. I went back to my earlier save when I first crafted and improved it, and compared everything on my character on my current save. There is no change to any effects. I even went back to see if I can improve it again just in case improvements wear out.... but now it said I can only improve it to 63 damage. I'm using steel arrows in both cases, but the damage I refer to is the bow only damage not counting the arrow in use. Anyone experience the same thing or maybe have any suggestions? I really started to like archery, so this really bums me out. Images follow....

Value is the same so the quality of the craft is the same. You must be wearing less archery bonus items in the second case or you got a disease that reduces your archery skill.

Yeah I know. I check all my effects again... Must have been the bracers I had on earlier. :banghead:

Don't feel bad. The first time I crafted one, I went to upgrade it while wearing my archery gear and had a dmg of 79. I switch to the smithing gear I had wondering how much better it would be and got a dmg of 70! I sat and tried to figure out what I did wrong for like 10 minutes. Then I was like, duh stupid - the archery bonuses.
