| I was looking for a while for a Youtube video for the hookshot sound effect. I couldn't find one that suited my purpose. That was the only part of this item that disappointed me.

| Hell, I like it. It's a nice upgrade from the standard grappling hook, and a very simple approach to it.

| There was some confusion due to miscategorization. This is a re-rate. Some things should probably be mentioned, like the possibility of a weak wielder (it can drag 300 lbs., what if the character can't?). Still not sure how that's supposed to look like a light crossbow. How does it affect creatures it hits? How is the hook removed? Not as essential, but how does retraction work? When using two, can you anchor yourself to something immobile, then drag something heavier than you but within your drag capacity?

On Quey's rating, I am puzzled by it. I'm not sure what the problem is with the "stolen picture" (aren't all of them?) but your problems mostly seem to be fluff-oriented over mechanical. Fair enough, but not really the important part. Though, you seem to be confused. It's pressure-launched, but I make no mention of pumping with one hand. That's refering to shooting it with one hand, something identical to light crossbows, which is a property of weight and not reloading it. It doesn't need reloading, just retracting (possible with 1 hand in this case). I would like to know more on what problems you see in order to see if its a problem and how to solve them. -- Eiji-kun 10:47, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
- I've got no idea what he's on about, but there are a few things that might need addressing. What action is needed to retract? What happens if the object and the user are the same weight? What if the object is secured, and not free to move? Fix those, then I'll give it a rating. --DanielDraco 11:23, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
- Good catch, I've added those. Rate away. -- Eiji-kun 11:27, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
- Actually one of those wasn't a good catch, because it seems you already had a retracting action listed. Whoops. But I'll go ahead and rate it on the presumption that you'll remove one of them. --DanielDraco 11:42, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
