    Both for archery and for throwing? Before it was 2/6/8 percent...

    And what means ammo recovery rate?

    Ammo recovery rate refers to the chance that your ammo (bolts, thrown weapons) will drop on the floor after use for you to pick up and re-use.

    Mind you, only the killing bolt may be recovered

    Of course I've failed to disarm a 45% chance trap 6 times..... so it really depends on how much Krong wants you to get your bolts/thrown weapons back.

    I think they should make the killing bolt 75% drop with level 3 archery. Most of the time I don't even kill stuff with bolts.

    What's the base percentage for drop before adding any of the abilities?
    Also if the ammo recovery rate only gives back the killing bolt 15% is still pretty poor.
    It should be for every ammo fired,not just the last one,so each arrow/thrown item has a chance to drop under the monster regardeless whether it hits or not.
