The '''Bow''' is a ranged weapon used for [[combat]] when combined with '''Arrows'''.
===Longbow=== <!--T:18-->


== Creation ==
<!--T:19-->
===Bow===
Long bow can be crafted from dry long bow stave, [[flax twine]], [[leather]] / [[Leather_Working#Pelt|hide pelts]], [[fat]] / [[Beekeeping#Honey_&_Wax|wax]] / [[resin]].
Currently there is only one kind of bow, which is created in the crafting grid.

===Arrows===
=== Recurve Bow=== <!--T:21-->
The raw material used to create the tool head determines the crafting process required:
* Knapping: Stone arrowheads can be crafted by [[Knapping|knapping]] flint. 
* ''Casting: Arrowheads cannot be made by [[casting]].''
* Smithing: Iron, Bronze alloy and copper arrowheads can be made by [[smithing]], which requires 1 ingot.
** Note: Arrowheads can also be smithed from gold and silver. 


Arrowheads are used to assemble arrows in the crafting grid.
<!--T:22-->
[[Classes|Hunter]] can craft recurve bow from [[flax twine]], [[leather]], [[bone]], raw bushmeat.


===Table: Arrow Tier===
<!--T:23-->
The type of arrow used modifies the base attack power of the bow.

== 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.
 
=== Harvesting ===
The bow (and arrow) are not used to harvest materials.


=== Combat ===

''Note: The arrows do not need to be placed in a hotbar slot to be used.''
 
=== Crafting ===
The bow (and arrow) are not used in any current game crafting.
 
==Storage==
Tools are items commonly used by players and are generally equipped in the hotbar.
* Bows do not stack in inventory or when placed in containers.  The [[containers#stationary container|tool rack]] is a specialized wall mounted storage container that allows players to store tools. Tool racks are made of 6 sticks in the crafting grid and once placed, can store 4 tools each. Tools are placed from an active hotbar slot and removed using the right mouse button to an empty space in the hotbar.
* Arrows stack to 64, may be carried in player inventory and stored in [[containers#stationary containers|stationary containers]].
