Your skills at crafting bows have increased.
The character's ability to craft bows has increased, and he or she may now repair or craft items of greater quality. The Action Point costs of repairing items of this type has decreased even further, as has the Action Point cost of crafting items of "average" quality. The Action Point cost of crafting arrows is also reduced. More details may be found in Crafting. You may now improve Bows above average quality.
Repairing or crafting bows requires a Portable Toolkit but can be done anywhere.
The bald man found her standing before him, holding out her short hunter’s bow. “It’s not shooting straight again,” she said. “Can you fix it?”
He didn’t relish the work; the bow was enchanted somehow, and whenever he worked on it he felt dizzy and drained for hours afterward. But he loved the way the stronghold lanterns lent flickering golden fire to her long red hair when she asked. He never said no. As she moved off to let him work, he noticed how the graceful curve of the bow echoed the curve of her hip.
He found the problem easily, but as he worked, he thought to himself that the bow’s action could be improved by a shaving here, a smoothing there. He gently shaped the wood to conform to her slim physique without disrupting the intricate carvings that both adorned and energized the bow.
It was hours later when he finished, and while he felt tired from the work, he did not feel the familiar draining nausea. And when she took the bow and gave it an experimental pull, the wonder and delight in her firelit green eyes was all the payment he needed.
