This is partly true, but I seem to find farming 3x bio 15, for barbed black arrows quicker than 1 plat 12, plus I would rather make a Gem with the plat
This was the idea originally behind it, blackbarbed aren't all that different from plat, they 3-2 dc less, but have the same crit / acc as plat. Plat are a luxury item but provide you with a 1000 more arrows than barbed, being a luxury item they share similar mats to gems.
While the op has a nice idea, that is also going to effect gem crafting.
My suggestion would be to increase the amount of arrows you get with plat making them last longer / more worthwhile. Players seem to forget there are 6 other sets of craftable arrows (maybe these need a slight buff?), which use easy to come by purity's. last i was aware the crit/acc wasnt being shown on the arrows but it was adding to the player specs, not sure if this is still the case? it was on the bug list for a while.
But here's the specs of arrows.
as you can see BarbedBlackArrows have a "?" beside them, this was because i was thinking of making them available in shops rather than craftable (with some minor changes like maybe an increase to lvl 45 now its twice as fast to lvl)
