If a quiver is found in the inventory but it is empty, no arrow Archery works best when standing at optimal range. You will be shot.

*Archery has a lower hit chance during the night (from 2119:00 to 06:00 wurm Wurm time). When firing a bow at night at an archery target for example, the message, "The dusk makes it harder to get a clear view of the archery target." will appear each time you shoot.
== Notes on Bows ==There are three types of bows:*Wearing a shield can significantly increase the rate at which you block arrows.[[Short bow]]*[[Reflex bow]]*[[Long bow]]
== Skill based options ==At various points in your To use a bow skill progression you get the following special shooting options::* When you have 20 skill in combat, it must be strung with a specific [[bow, you'll get the '''Shoot Quickly''' optionstring]]. Bow strings can snap. <br>:* When you have 30 skill in a specific The higher the QL of the bowstring, you'll get the '''Aim at Torso''' optionless chance that it snaps. <br>:* When you have 40 skill in The chance of a specific bow, you'll get the '''Aim at right arm''' , '''Aim at left arm''' and '''Aim at legs''' options. <br>:* Higher skill options string snapping is thought to be discovered, feel free to add more.1 in (QL of bow string * 10)
== [[Additionally:Category:Bows|Bows]] ==*Bows made with [[Long bowwillow]]decrease the difficulty of your shot.*[[Bow]]The higher the QL of the bow, the more damage is inflicted on your target. *[[Short bow]]Rare bows increase damage by 5%, supreme bows increase damage by 10%, and fantastic bows increase damage by 15%.
== [[:Category:Arrows|Notes on Arrows]] ==There are three types of arrows:
*[[Hunting arrow]]
*[[War arrow]]
*[[Arrow shaft]]can be used as an arrow, without any arrow head affixed ''NoteWhen shooting a bow, the order of arrow selection is: You can use #Arrows in an equipped [[quiver]].#Arrows in your [[backpack]].#Arrows in a quiver in your inventory.#Arrows in your inventory not in a quiver.*a container with other items in it will stop the selection order and may stop you from shooting, for example an equiped quiver with other items in it(not arrows) will stop the search and wont let you shoot arrows in your equipped backpack or on a quiver on inventory. you will instead get the message "You have no arrows left to shoot!". In addition to the order of precedence above, the type of arrow also determines the order of arrow selection:#War arrows#Hunting arrows#Arrow shafts Additionally:*Arrows made with [[cedar]] as normal are easier to improve.*Arrows made with [[cedar]] reduce the difficulty of the shot by 5%*Arrows made with [[maple]] take 20% less damage.*Arrows made with [[maple]] reduce the difficulty of the shot by 3% *Rare arrows decrease the difficulty of the shot by 5%, supreme arrowsby 10%, but they have poor accuracy and fantastic arrows by 15%. *Rare arrows increase the damageof the shot by 30%, supreme arrows by 60%, and fantastic arrows by 90% == Additional Damage Modifiers ==*Every point in [[body strength]] increases archery damage by 1%.*The biggest damage modifier is the ql of the arrows used.*Shooting a bow from a position above your target increases damage, while shooting a bow from a position below your target decreases damage. For each level of dirt you are above or below your target, the modifier is 1%, up to a maximum of 20%.*A target that is under water will gain you less take half damage unless the target is taller than 4 meters.*The target’s armour is a significant factor in damage. *Targets wearing a shield can block shots from inflicting damage. == Enchanting ==Possible enchantments on bows:*[[Circle of cunning]] can be put on a bow to increase archery and bow skill. They are however much easier to replace when broken*[[Nimbleness]] will reduce the difficulty of the shot by (Spell QL / 30).*[[Bloodthirst]] increases damage as it increases in power. *[[Wind of ages]] will increase attack speed, but only until 55 in that bow''s skill (Short bow, Medium bow, Long bow), at which point you reach the hard cap for a bow’s action timer. You should enchant the bow with Nimbleness instead of WoA.*[[Blessings of the dark]] are a substitute for CoC and WoA, but you should use CoC + Nimbleness instead.*[[Mind stealer]] to occasionally gain skills Possible enchantments on arrows:*Each of the [[demise spells]]*[[Frostbrand]] or [[Rotting touch]] or [[Venom]] to increase damage*[[Life transfer]] to gain health
== Associated items Skillgain Tips ==*The archery skill is limited to 45 while practicing on an [[Bow stringarchery target]]. You may gain up to 30 skill in a bow type by practicing on an archery target. * Although they give less skill than real arrows, it is best to use arrow shafts when practicing on archery targets, as they are far easier to make and won't cause excessive damage to the target. Arrows that aren't broken can be picked up at the archery target.*[[Archery Firing on the target]]from outside your bow's optimal range will increase the difficulty, and thus increase your skillgain at higher skill levels.* Practicing at night or in darkness will similarly increase the difficulty, so if you find skillgain slowing, you may want to practice at night or underground. The game will advise you of the increased difficulty in events when triggered.* Beyond 45 skill, the only way to gain further is by using archery on animals or in player vs. player combat. Unlike fighting skill, you gain random archery skill for every shot and optimum archery skill for every successful damage dealt. Fighting skill is also gained after a successful kill.* Using other players as targets to train is effective at any level. There is a 3 hour cooldown, which begins after the event message, "You will not gain skill for attacking #### for a few hours".* WLers shooting same kingdom will become hunted.*Skillgain is affected by [[Hunting arrow headSleep bonus]].* You can't gain archery and sub-archery skills from bred animals.*[[War arrow head]]Every priest can use bows.*Archery provides the fastest means to gains in [[Quiverbody control]].
