I allow for creativity, but doing something cool without resources requires to be lucky. Either you use resources (abilities, spell slots, items, weapons, terrain, etc) or you hope to get lucky on a low chance plan.

If you want to do that, thats all that matters

If you had fun, then it was right to do it. Simple as that

A true dwarf wouldnt ask this, leaf lover

ROCK BURP AND BURP STOOoooOOOOONE BURP

Utility ? No idea. But Speak with animals is so fucking hilarious that I will carry a class just for it because its that funny. I was sold the second I talked to the squirrels near the bard.

Fun fact. I wanted to trap my level 12 party in a dungeon, one of them had disintegrate. So I engraved a reflecting effect in the door. Any direct one target spell casted on the door would bounce back. It would take 3 spells used that way to empty the magic of the door.

Sadly, he never casted disintegrate on it. Sad DM noise.

But DAM its hard to trap a high level party anywhere.

Drop the sword = free action Spell = action Take the sword back = object interaction Voila. You casted a spell with a sword in hand.

Some DMs could be a bit tight and say you need object interaction to touch your focus, but me as a DM a free hand is enough.

Its a resource management game. Either you use your imagination and roll a few chance dice, or you use an appropriate resource for it. Which is why killing a target that isnt already captures with a cantrip one shot doesnt work.

Because they suck ?

Normally you count them and get half of the shot ones back. It sucks. Thats why almost nobody does it.

Best way to decide is this : should a cantrip or level 1 spell one shot a target ?

No. No it shouldnt. Disintegrate can because its a very high level spell slot. But resources wise, foot the fucking bill please.

But I would allow its use to torture a captured target by waterboarding.

My players would just sell it back. I know, I gave them important items and they did that XD

So you liked it and had fun right ?

Good then. The question isnt to count arrows or not, but to find how to have fun yourself with the arrows. There isnt a right answer. It depends on you as a player.

If you have fun, you are winning. Doesnt matter if you count or not.

No problems. Clearly you needed someone to tell you

Taking your advice sounds awful.

What about physical training ? Callous feet ? Diet ? Real life aint a game and for good fucking reasons. If you want to, great, but that iz the question. Not Does this makes sense, but Does this make things more fun for everyone ?

Indeed. You should. Which is why coubting them is as useless as nightime embushes that everyone still heals from at the end of the long rest.

Ah, so 2 arrows at level 1 then ? Better not fucking miss

So they just cant buy them ever ?

See, thats why I dont count normal arrows. Its tedious. Its the right word
