| '''Hunting slings''' are one-handed ranged weapons. They accept both [[stone]]s and [[sling bullet]]s as ammunition, but using sling bullets will increase your damage significantly.They deal 7 damage with stones and 9 with sling bullets. Although weaker than [[bow]]s or [[crossbow]]s, they only require one hand, making them a good secondary weapon option for characters using [[shield]]s, and have more abundant ammunition due to the ability to use both stones and sling bullets.
| |
| | |
| While hunting slings are perfectly respectable ranged weapons for the early game, sling-users will generally want to upgrade to a [[fustibalus]] at some point for superior damage.
