Bowcrafting

Bowcrafting is used to produce arrows, bows, crossbows, heavy crossbows and composite bows, which are used for Archery. Bows are crafted from logs, which are cut from trees using the Lumberjacking skill. There are several different types of Logs, which are used to create bows of different strengths. The rarer the type of log, the stronger a bow crafted from the logs will be. Also, ingots of different ore types can be combined with a bow to create a composite bow, with rare ores creating bows that are stronger.

Using Bowcrafting

In order to create bows, you need a knife to fletch with, and logs. Using different types of logs will produce bows of diffent strengths, the rarer the log type the stronger the bow. See Archery for further details.

Composite bows

Composite bows are made using the advanced bowcraft toolkit, together with a ready made bow and an ingot. These toolkits are made by Tinkering, with 100% tinkering, 20 logs and 20 iron ingots. They are used to create composite bows using the Bowcraft skill. The toolkit is used to combine an ingot of an ore and a bow. The higher the level of the ore, the stronger the composite bow produced will be.
