'''Ranging''' (or '''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 equipped arrow usually gets destroyed if a [[creature]] counterattacks, and sometimes your bow does too.

Of the cheap bows the Shortbow shoots the fastest (Speed 30) and is fairly accurate (+4 Missile accuracy) while the Crossbow shoots the slowest (Speed 20) but with the greatest accuracy (+8 missile Accuracy). The Long bow, is slower and less accurate than the Short bow (+2 Missile Accuracy) but does a little more damage. Recurve (+6 Missile Accuracy) and Elven (+10 missile Accuracy) bows are both faster and more accurate but also a lot more expensive. The Elven bow does considerably more damage than the cheaper bows.

every 5 levels of ranging you gain +1 damage +1 range accuracy

== Perks ==
There are some [[Perks]] that are specifically designed for ranging:
; [[Wilhelm Hood Perk]]
:Increased accuracy of ranging weapons,
: damage and ranging experience increased by 15%, 
; [[Ethereal Ranger Perk]]
:30% chance to not lose an arrow or bolt after firing it.
; [[Ninja Perk]]
: 80% chance that you will not become visible (if [[invisible]]) when using ranged attacks. This effect is also given by wearing the [[Tunic of the Ninja]].
; [[Sharp Shooter]]
: 25% more perception when ranging.

== Armor piercing ==
The armor piercing effect in ranging is given by the [[Potion of Archery AP|AP potions]]. Each potion drunk increases the chance of bypassing an opponent's armor by 1% permanently, accumulative up to 60%.

The [[Body Piercing Perk]] has no effect in ranging.

Drinking 60 [[Potion of Archery AP|AP potions]] gives you the [[Achievements#Armor piercer|Armor piercer achievement]].

== Ranging arena ==
[[Archery Arenas]] provide an additional money sink for this money sink skill by providing a target that neither moves nor dies. You need to buy and use an [[Archery Arena Ticket]] for enter.
