I just gave one of my PCs an acid arrow for his longbow:
"On hit, the target takes 1d8 acid damage and must pass a 15DC con saving throw or suffer -2 to their AC and have disadvantage of con saving throws for 3 rounds (does not stack)."

I figure the best way to do this is duplicate the longbow as a separate weapon that has the new ammunition type - acid arrows. I've added the extra die for acid damage, but I have no idea how to code in the con saving throw for the NPC and the -2 to their AC as well as the disadvntage to con saving throws for 3 rounds. I've looked at the wiki and I'm not understanding well enough to figure it out. Can someone help?
