I really want to bump the recurve bows damage up a few notches, can someone point me in the right direction? Thank you so much. I started modding a far cry 4 a few days ago, and I love the challenge of it! Thanks again in advance! For the record, I am extremely new to making mods myself. I really just want the arrow to do more damage!

You need to find the ark.fcb for the arrow (unlike guns damage for bows comes from the arrows rather than the weapons themselves) The arrow for the Recurve should be 7678934758000.ark.fcb (the primitive bow has a matching primitive arrow) Search through that for "flevel". It's default is 125. Increase this number. Most humans have 100 HP so an arrow is more than sufficient to kill them BUT several types of humans (defenders, heavy gunners, etc) have armor modifiers that lower the damage. Stealth kills though boost damage so usually can still kill them 1 shot. Headshots generally do triple damage so again one shot (not heavy gunner cause of the helmet though?) Animals have different HP from a goats and pigs with low health (60-80ish) to big cats with over a thousand and Rhinos and Elephants with 2-3K (approximately... I can't remember without looking them all up I know the Rhino has the most and its several thousand) Good luck!

May I ask if you had any success on changing the bow's (arrows) damage? I for myself don't really get the ark.fcb stuff. Perhabs someone would be so kind and share a file, that we can include in our own packaging. For example, just a bow with twice or tripple the damage it does right now (to living beings ofc).
I would be utterly grateful!

Hey, a few years late, but JRaven, I can't find the Arrow Damage mod you are talking about. Do you have link to it?

Hey Bee you need to use 7678934758000.ark.fcb file convert this to XML format search for BaseDamage tag and change the value inside <flevel> Use DuniaTools to convert the FCB to XML and back and forth instead of armanIII although the latter is a much better one, there is slight binHex altercation u need to keep in mind which u don't need to do so in case of Dunia tools

I know this is an older thread, but after I extract and edit the converted xml files from entityarchetypeslibrary folder, how do I convert them back to fcb to repack it?
Edit: I managed to figure out how to do it, and got my mod working.
