    Now an Elm velocity bow will make logic
    We already said that archers could use low level arrows or make their own which is easy enough if you have leveled carpentry.

    FF11 is an old game and we shouldn't be comparing how things worked in that game to how things work in a game in 2011.

    WoW uses AA and yes uses whatever arrows you have equipped, a much better solution would have been if the dev team allowed us to macro in different arrows for different TP attacks, there is always a solution it just depends how much effort they are willing to put in.

    and to be honest I don't mind using by best arrows in AA if it means that my damage is significantly better, of course I would only equip my best arrows for when fighting NM's.

    Actually Ammo has been removed from WoW, to balance the fact that the characters had to waste a bag slot for ammo and required a resource while other characters did not. If on the off chance they ran out they would be rendered useless.

    Though my thoughts on this letter was basically /meh... I expected it to look like that but we must remember auto attack is not content, even if they put auto attack and its great what are you going to be doing with auto attack? Leve grinding?

    WoW removed ammo from the game in patch 4.0.1, the pre-Cataclysm patch.
