| Yes it is true.
In 3.0 they did stack, but it was changed in 3.5 | | First peon to make it to "Knight Warlord" Completed Trades -148- | |

| The same is true, by the way, with magical arrows, meaning you only get a +1 to damage, not +2. Although if you had a +1 Flaming Bow and +1 Ice Arrows you'd get both forms of elemental damage.
Magical bows are *much* better in 3.5 than they were in 3.0. What I like is buying special material ammo (like adamantine) and using it with a magical bow. Yummmmm.

| | out of curiosity, how are magical bows better in 3.5, if they stack less than they did in 3.0? | | "Why am I all sticky and naked? Did I miss something fun?" -Vindicated champion of Tordek, Dwarf Champion | |

| | I'm wondering the same thing. It seems like a 3.0 archer would shoot the pants off of a 3.5 archer with all the allowable stacking. | | Over 270 successful online DDM trades. | |

| It's because you can use normal arrows and then make them magical by virtue of the bow. In 3e, if you fired a normal arrow with a magic bow, it wouldn't penetrate DR at all.

| | So what happens if you fire a chaotic-aligned arrow out of a lawful-aligned bow? Do you get an explosion, like matter and antimatter? [:P] | | "Why am I all sticky and naked? Did I miss something fun?" -Vindicated champion of Tordek, Dwarf Champion | |

I believe that they would actually stack. As does fire and frost, etc.
But an explosion would be much cooler. | | Have: Cat; Want: Storm Giant Champion of Anything Dragonlance Before trading, please check the Disputed Trades Thread | |

I'm sure the bow and arrow would quarrel. :-) | | | |
