The arrows seriously need to be retrievable. Otherwise, I don't see a point in using the bow. Even if an arrow breaks every 10th shot, it would still be better than breaking just about every time.

Yeah, I've been able to retrieve some, but most of my bolts/arrows aren't retrievable. I can clearly see them, but I can't pick them up unfortunately.

THEY’RE NOT RETRIEVABLE?!?!?!?????? WTF?
That makes no sense
They were retrievable in 1

RIGHT. It defeats the purpose of using bows/crossbows in the first place

I get a feeling the chance is perhaps about 40-50% that it can be retrieved. If they were always retrievable it would be silly as you would only need to craft a dozen or so to carry you through the entire game.... just imagine it is the chance of breaking for game balance purposes and each shot is just a gamble... If they were 100% retrievable there would be almost no reason to no always use them everywhere all the time... but if you want to, then I bet there is either a mod out already or there will be soon.

That's a fair point. However, I think that the percentage should be more like an 80% chance of recovering the arrow/bolt. So far, I've tested by shooting 10 bolts into heads, and I've only been able to retrieve 2 out of 10 of them. For me, an 80% chance of breaking is way too high.

I think what adds to the problem is some collision issues with the game, you can't loot weapons if they are clipped into the wall or the ground (and pavements). even thrown melee weapons can't be retrieved sometimes.

I’ve definitely noticed this. It’s sad because I love this game to death, but these issues seriously need to be fixed.
