Summary

The Archery skill allows a player to fire arrows/bolts from afar with Bows and Crossbows

  • NO archery class weapons can be poisoned
  • Players must remain stationary for 0.5 seconds in order to shoot (regardless of their Dexterity)
  • Bows can fire arrows at targets up to 10 tiles away from the archer
  • Crossbows can fire bolts at targets up to 8 tiles away from the archer
  • The chance to hit with an archery class weapon is equal to (attacker's archery skill + 50) / ((defender's weapon or wrestling skill + 50) * 2) plus any relevant accuracy bonuses


PvM: Archery Weapon Special Attack

  • Only works against creatures, not other players
  • Players have a 10% chance of inflicting an Archery Weapon Special Attack against creatures
  • This chance can be further increased via the Arms Lore Skill, Water Aspect Armor, or Mastery Chain Links
    • Increases damage dealt by the attack that generated the special by 50% (by 100% if the target is already hindered or immune to hinder)
    • Hinders the target (prevents all movement, casting, melee attacks) for 4-8 seconds
      • Hinder effect duration scales based on weapon speed (slower archery weapons have longer effect duration) and creature difficulty
      • Players also receive a +25% Accuracy bonus when using Archery Weapons against a creature that is hindered at the time of the attack


Weapon Types

  • See the Weapons Chart for a list of Archery weapons
  • The Crossbow functions as a One-Handed weapon, meaning players can wield them with shields or can use Potions while wielding them without a shield in their off-hand
