Arrows

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.

Copper 0.0 3.0
Tin Bronze 1.0 4.0
Bismuth Bronze 1.0 4.0
Black Bronze 1.5 4.5
Iron 2.0 5.0
Meteoric Iron 2.25 5.25
Steel 2.5 5.5
Gold 1.0 4.0
Silver 1.0 4.0

Usage

The bow and arrow is a weapon available to players from mid stages of the game. The type of arrows used affects the damage per hit.

Combat

Attacking a mob (ranged combat): Place the bow in an active hotbar slot.

  • Charging the Bow: Press and hold right mouse button to charge the bow (nock/draw).
  • Aiming the Bow: Aim the white crosshairs at the selected target
  • Firing an Arrow: Release the mouse button to fire (loose) the arrow.

Note: The arrows do not need to be placed in a hotbar slot to be used.

Storage

Bows are tools and can be placed on a tool rack.
