Archery

The Archery skill allows a player to fire arrows/bolts from afar with Bows and Crossbows. Players must remain stationary for 0.5 seconds in order to shoot (regardless of their Dexterity).

PvM

• Players have a 10% chance of inflicting an Archery Weapon Special Attack against creatures

Archery Weapon Special Attack

• Only works for PvM
• Increases damage by 50%
• 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
• If target is immune to being hindered or already currently hindered, the attacks damage will be increased by a further 50%
• If a player applies another Hinder effect to a mob, the Hinder effect will convert to damage
