[Bowcraft/Fletching] Am I missing something?

[Thargor]

In order to fill fletching bods with arrows/bolts/kindling, do I have to split stack all the time into corresponding amounts? or there is an easier way?
thank you

It's a pain in the .... It also affects alchemy BODs (stacks of potions), inscription (stacks of scrolls), and cooking (stacks of some foods).

There's no way to do it, except to either put only enough raw materials in your pack at a time for the BOD's amount (for the fletching stuff and some of the cooking stuff).

With some of the other stuff, you could just "make number", but with the arrows, bolts, shafts, fish steaks, etc. that are "Make many as possible in one attempt", that doesn't work, so it's either do it all at once and then separate off the piles as needed, or do multiple crafting attempts with only the desired number's parts in your pack.

Hey Basara, thank you for clarifying things a bit. I know it is prob a low priority but did anyone asked the developers to fix it? so anyone could fill bods from the stack?

not that I know of - you can always go ask.

Frankly, nearly everyone I know doing arrow or bolt BODs do it using ammo looted off of changelings, centaurs, etc. I can't remember crafting arrows or bolts in the last decade.

Shafts, on the other hand, I've done, but again I usually just buy them off an NPC.
