Bows Damage changing?

[devrow2020]

So not sure why this is happening I am assuming it is because of some mod i have on, but every so often when load a save back up the damage of my bows with shift around, like one of my bows was 56 damage when i found, now i reloaded the save and the bow is 60 damage. Also i think it might be off a bit, because i am level 25 and i am finding bows that do like 50-60 damage, seems a lil high and unbalanced for my level.

 

I dont have any bow mods only sword mods, that add new swords to the game, but they are suppose to be level listed. don't know if anyone can explain this.

 

Im playing the game on expert. and my bow skill as of now is 62 which also seems high given that i am only level 25 idk mybe i am wrong.

 

Just wondering if anyone has had this strange issue

Bow damage will go up as skill increases, or, if you improve the bow at a blacksmith's station.

Also depending on what arrow you use. If you are sad that you are too powerful, use only low level arrows and low level bows (like hunting bows with iron arrows) . And maybe just aim for the knee ;-)

There was a thread about something similar somewhere else, except the OP there was having issues with all weapons. Personally, I found a similar but bow-specific thing was happening in my game and it only occurred when I equipped a particular bow. For example, my Daedric Bow would be at 433 damage (all archery buff perks and 3 fortify archery - enchanted pieces of apparel) in my inventory, but as soon as I equipped it the damage would be shown at 602. Weird stuff, never did figure it out. (I only had Daedric arrows in my inventory. Now that I think about it... maybe only equipping the bow added the arrow damage but, still, an additional 169 in damage from arrows?)

I have nothing to add except

 

For example, my Daedric Bow would be at 433 damage

 

Ho. Lee. F00k. I've never come close to any weapon having that sort of damage. I think I've had battleaxes go above 200+ damage but that's it.

Well, I dont think its the arrows, Cause I only use steel arrows, but Ill pay more attention to that next time. and the other day for example it happend again this time my bow went from 65 to the 40s. The funny thing is I dont think its actually changing the damage value because it always takes roughly the same amount of arrows to kill an enemy, varying on the difficulty of the enemy of course but it is not over powering, or to weak its just that I cant get an accurate read on the damage of the bows I'am picking up. Very strange.

 

Also gotta say too, how in the world do you have a bow that does anywhere above the 200s or even the 100s I dont think I ever seen a weapon do more then 80 damage.....but then again I have only played up to like level 50 then started new characters, cuz once you go above that I mean whats the point? Thats the one problem with skyrim once your like anywhere above level 40 its way too easy, and theres no quests left to do. at least for me.

 

Thanks for the replies and the help ill reply again If I ever discover the root of this issue, but over all it is not really effecting the game play which is good.

Did you try and test if it depends on the direction you're facing? Pls test this: Turn 30 degrees and take look at the weapon stats, than turn again 30 degrees and repeat this until you turned completelly around once. Might sound ridiculous, but that's what happened to me :/
