Looking for the emote? If so, see Bow (emote).

Bows are weapons used in ranged combat that require a certain Ranged level to wield. They require ammunition in the form of arrows. Bows can be created by members through the Fletching skill and come in two varieties: longbows and shortbows.

[edit] Shortbows

Main article: Shortbow (bow type)

Shortbows fire arrows at a faster rate than longbows but may not fire from as long of a distance.

[edit] Longbows

Main article: Longbow (bow type)

Longbows can fire arrows at targets from a further distance than shortbows can, but they fire at a slower rate.
