Can you make Adamantine Sling Bullets? Are they destroyed after use?

Normal ammunition is destroyed after use, but what about Sling Bullets made from Adamantine?

Adamantine ammunition is destroyed after use just like any other ammunition.

Try not to think about it too hard.

Just seems silly to me is why I asked.

Likely as not, they are lost and non-recoverable rather than physically destroyed.

Maybe you could use some spell or even cantrip to find and gather them. Can you use Mend to fix normal broken ammo?

I assume that all the material is there so you could use Fabricate, right?

After the fight you collect all the destroyed ammunition and then put them in a pile and remake the bullets?

Reminds me of that comic after the Planet Hulk storyline when Hulk returns to Earth, they take him down with his permission, and they are cleaning up all the adamantium ammunition afterwards that they expended trying to shoot him.

It's more likely in the case of adamantine that they're assumed to roll off and aren't able to be found than 'destroyed.' The "50% rule" covers every case of ammo not being put back into the bag.

And before you bring up the whole "But it's a room with bare floors and nowhere for the stuff to roll" the rule is also intended to be used over time. It's a handwave for every time you fire stuff into a field of tall grass where you wouldn't get ANYTHING back.

If you drop an adamantine bullet, it punches through the earth's crust (ignores the hardness of stone) and lodges deep underground. You can recover adamantine bullets if you have a burrow speed and a lot of free time. Also, in the Darklands, caverns under bullet fighting grounds often have horrific bouts of adamantine bullet rain dropping down from above to wreak terrible havoc upon the poor defenseless drow and intellect devourers and cave Santas and all that.

Ah, but should they not then also ignore the hardness of the pouch you carry them in and fall out the bottom before you can use them?

I'm sooo using that!

Cave santa's you say......Hummmmm.

Retrieving a sling bullet out of a corpse would be some messy work, ever see deadlyest warrior? The one with the Gladiator vs the Apache they demonstrate a sling, the bullet goes through the face and sits in the skull. Sometimes best just to cut your losses and hope what ever you killed with it was worth it.

Only sling noobs use anything other than adamantine sling pouches. I'm assuming no one here is a sling noob.

D'oh!!! Thats why my ammo was always getting lost!

Can we errata the Adventurers armoury for the cost of adamantine sling pouches?

:D

People use slings? That's so...sad.

Why? People use crossbows. Slings are simple, and unlike crossbows, you can apply Str. to damage. And at a better range increment/typically lower cost than throwing daggers or w/e. And the reload is a move action, so you're one feat away from a free-action reload. All other ranged benefits as normal.

Of all the things that get me too buy, this just hit number 2 on my list.

So what is the terminal velocity of an unladen Adamantine Sling Bullet?

Good show James! Way to keep 'em on their heels. Perhaps an upcoming product can feature an NPC with an Sling Bullet Pouch carefully woven with links of Adamantine Mail.

Would that be a small or medium Adamantine Sling Bullet?

wouldn't they ignore air resistance and thus fall at exactly the speed of a feather in complete vacuum?
