Arrows

Information
In order to fire from a range weapon, you will need to use some sort of ammunition. To fire with a bow, you will need to use arrows - Which can be fletched. Creating arrows will require you to use three skills; Smithing, Fletching & any type of Combat. You will need to smith the arrowheads, fletch the arrowshafts and kill for the feathers. Arrowshafts can be cut from regular logs, arrowheads can be aquired by smithing any type of bar and feathers can be gotten from chickens. Remember that what type of arrow you will be making is determined by the arrowhead (Logical, as its the head that deals damage)

You'll notice that not all of the arrows that you fired will appear on the ground beneath the monster or player you wish the kill. The reason behind that is that some arrows tend to break, and will basically be worthless junk - Making it not appear on the ground for you to pick up. The chances of an arrow breaking will decrease the higher your Ranged level becomes.

One thing to note though is that the arrow damage cap is based on the bow you are using. This means that if it was possible to use dragon arrows with an oak shortbow, the dragon arrows would still be seen as iron arrows by the system, which is why it has been totally disabled.

If you find it annoying to pickup all the arrows that are located on the floor, or are having some problems with arrow thieves, then it is highly recommended to get an Ava's accumulator, attractor or alerter. The purpose of these items is to pickup all the arrows that you fire that do not break. So all the items that would in normal cases appear on the floor, will instead go straight back into your equipment tab.
