Pouch Of Returning

[Deleted]

Sooo.... I wanted to get my hands on some good secondary weapons for throwing specialists. I want to invest in good throwing weapons but they are pricey to make a bulk of them. I realized I could use hirashin to teleport the items back towards me, but I still thought it would be cool for people to have a way to do something similar. Perhaps an Item like this? Maybe a seal that could be placed on pouches much like deep pockets?

I dunno.

I have hiraishin and I still would need a pouch of returning. I really hope this gets approved.

Isn't having the items return to the pouch at effectively no cost to the user extremely powerful?

Honestly, want your items back? Go and grab them. Lol. There are also clever things you can do like welding chains to them, et cetera. I considered using thrown weapons, and there are a fair number of options...

Yes the item would be useful. yes the intent for it was to be good. 

Saying "just go pick them up" negates the reason for this creation. Akin to saying to someone who wants a straw to just drink from the glass. The intent of this is to circumvent the use of chains or wires or jutsu. This would make crafted non explosive secondary weapons a viable choice. 

An item being good shouldn't be an issue. We can add a rarity or make it required to be crafted.

Um. Word. I actually don't have a problem with the idea. It sure is powerful, but it makes sense that there would be some way to pull this off by now. Can't you already do something similar as a Kyoudo though? Would be nice to have a non-Kyoudo way. I'd say address by looking at drawbacks/restrictions/costs etc and find some way to make it more high risk/effort - high reward. If it's a pain in the ass to get, everyone isn't going to be walking around with it. Good luck with getting it approved. Would add alot of cool combat stuff I could do as well.

Going to say no to this. This will just be too powerful. So many people going into art of throwing to toss their crap and have it magically back into their bag. Even if there's a time limit. The best thing I can make is a returning seal to have an item fly back at you but not a bag that's going to be a vacuum.

Hey that's awesome. 

I've already got my own way set up. Just thought it would be a cool idea to add it to the pages somewhere.  A returning seal would be pretty sweet!

A few ways to handle using a lot of secondary weapons.

[Deleted]

not trying to store a bunch of them. The goal was to have 2-4 really good secondary weapons that didn't need a legendary seal to get them to return to you. The other solution only works on one item at a time so it's not exactly useful.

Its kind of a shame this got nixed. I liked where this was going. Reminds me of the Dark Elf Swashbuckler, Jarlaxle Baenre from the Forgotten Realms books.

Dude had magic bracers that would recall his throwing daggers (which themselves could be magically extended into paired swords) giving him effectively a substantially increased amount of throwing ammo. Pretty boss. Not sure if it was limited at all or not, but that was never really relevant.
