You really shot arrows at a rock? And that's fun? Just play and use your bow. It's more than enough.

I can waste 20 min of target practice on a rock with no problem. It's called practice, like punching the heavy bag at the gym. Even the Vikings trained for combat and it is built into the game. You cannot damage rocks with your weapons. As the weapons dull you can repair them at craft table. The fire helps regenerate stamina. The arrows use nothing but 40 wood/stack of 100.

I play this game solo and I died when I first encountered a Troll, then died 3 times trying to recover my body. I finally spent a ton of time asking for people on forum to help me recover my body.

If I had spent all my body recovery time training up skills I would not have needed it.
