I was wondering if ranged ammunition is lodgeable when using tkt or tks. Also, will naptha vials break on creatures when using these spells?

And I have one request for tkt and tks. Can we make the spells so that if we are holding ranged ammo, the ammo will be used.

No on the first... Im not sure but Id hazard no on the second as well. And I doubt theyll do that though there is a cantrip that does that exact effect.

Is there a reason why tkt and tks ammo is not lodgeable and naptha unbreakable? I'm not sure if it's a balance issue. If it's not, then I hope they will be made lodgeable in the future.

I actually always wished that you could designate a hand and it would tkt object in said hand and then return it to you. Tall order and most likely not even possible but thats what i always wished happened.

There's a nomad cantrip that sorta does that. Does it work in 3.0? I haven't tested (TKT/TKS wasn't my work).

Sanity. Lodging random items that aren't meant to lodge in someone is a good way to end up with a big mess, and naphtha is not exactly well integrated into combat (I recently spoke to Kodius about this while playing with naphtha and the splash verb, but isn't an aspect that combat 3.0 has really gotten too) so adding it to TKT/TKS wouldn't be trivial (Though I'd feel a lot more comfortable doing that then making things lodge).

Actually got me on that one. Im not well versed in the other Sects cantrips. I know the Nomad cantrip chooses whats in your hand but I think its like a one shot thing and it doesnt return it. The only tkt cantrip I know is the fling one which to be honest Im not even sure I remember what it does... I think it removes a junk item in the room for giggles.

And here I wanted to lodge a log in someones eye.

Saying this as someone who knows nothing about the back end of stuff, but don't weapons have to have puncture damage in order to lodge when you throw them? Could TKT/TKS make a similar check to determine if something should attempt to lodge?

if items are too difficut to lodge, would it be possible to have a compromise where moonblade slivers lodge?
