Make gmw work on ranged weapons?

+3 EB bows with unlimited basic ammo already completely nullify ammo costs, they are worth it

and then if you have a normal +3 EB like the bonecrusher you are still never going to get +3 ammo because it will not stack, you use a bow like that with elemental arrows which are way cheaper than +3 arrows

or you do what every other archer does after those two were introduced and you just save the arrows you find and never buy anything again, unless you run low on fire/acid arrows for trolls

There is the Enchanted Bow spell, and Harper Priest PRC for something even better.

And yeah, when my ranger upgraded her bow to +4 EB... from +3 EB... The difference was basically unnoticiable.

Yeah I never liked that with Harper Priest LOL! Too much power they have.

But precedent had been set.

The issue here is that I haven't seen such bow on sale in a shop. Same applies to unlimited ammo slings, by the way.

Unlimited crossbows can be found relatively easily.

+3 EB bow of nocking (unlimited ammo) and +3 EB bone crusher (extra damage type blunt) were both sold at thunder hammers in beregost, i dont see why they would have been removed so they are likely still there

Both are still up.

I don't think there are any technical reasons why it shouldn't be allowed to work on ranged weapons. Seems to just be an NWN curiosity that only melee weapons are enabled. We added gloves as allowed target, imo we should add ranged weapons as well.

I found this:

In 3.5, this spell could affect as many as fifty arrows, bolts, or bullets rather than a weapon (if the ammunition was of the same type), but could not affect thrown weapons (except for shuriken). The projectiles lose their enchantment bonus when used. It could also affect ranged weapons, and such weapons would give the enchantment bonus to their ammunition.

I don't see a problem with this.
