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 and is fairly accurate (+4 Missile accuracy) while the Crossbow shoots the slowest 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.
