Craftable gemmed blowpipes for lower levels: Weaker than Toxic Blowpipe

[digital lion]

Make gemmed blowpipes for lower levels, Sapphire, Emerald, Ruby, Diamond, and finally Dragonstone. No Onyx because it'd directly compete with Toxic Blowpipe, which isn't the purpose of this suggestion.

It would be crafting related, of course, and would take a combination of a matching level of logs along with the gem to make.
The items would give no extra benefit other than higher damage output and slightly increased range compared to 1-handing darts. None of the blowpipes would compete in damage output to the Toxic Blowpipe to make getting a TBP feel like a large upgrade.
This would make gems slightly more valuable, on top of making lower tier darts more valuable, without having any negative effects on the TPB, since it would still be a high tier choice for ranging at higher levels.

personally i think bp should kinda feel like an iconic lvl to get

bp is so strong its like trident changes meta entirely for you

there is a gap for sure but imo we dont need to fill every gap

Darts were kind of all right for very early ranged training, not sure how the BP addition / nerf affected things. I do think a lower level blowpipe & a lower level ballista would be great additions
