How to Use Archery
Equip a bow, crossbow, or heavy crossbow and make sure you have arrows or crossbow bolts in your backpack. Archery is a secondary combat skill for PVP dexers or used in PVM on bards.
Archery doesn’t have a formal special weapon ability. We’ve removed the movement penalty formerly associated with archery. Archers can load an arrow or bolt while running allowing them to fire their bow or crossbow as soon as they stop moving, rather than having to wait several seconds to fire.
Orcish bows have a range of 12, offering greater advantages while on the run.
