===Arrows=== <!--T:4-->
Similar to the bow, there are two different types of arrows - the normal one which can be crafted by everyone, and the crude version which is only accessible to the hunter class.
The raw material used to create the tool head determines the crafting process required:
* [[Knapping]]: Only flint - this is also the only type of arrow head usable for a crude arrow.
* [[Smithing]] (1 ingot): Iron, Bronze alloy, Copper, Gold, and Silver.
