Archery is the use of bows and arrows to fight at long distance. It's used in hunting and combat. Be careful when shooting at close range, your arrows get destroyed if a creature counterattacks and sometimes your bow does too.

Of the cheap bows the Shortbow shoots the fastest and is fairly accurate (+4 Missile accuracy) while the Crossbow shoots the slowest but with the greatest accuracy (+8 missile Accuracy). However, the Long bow, is slower and less accurate than the Short bow (+2 Missile Accuracy). Recurve (+6 Missile Accuracy) and Elven(+10 missile Accuracy) bows are both faster and more accurate but also a lot more expensive. All bows Do the same amount of damage.
