Category:Archery

From HorizonXI Wiki

Archery is a category of Weapons that covers the two types of bow; the Shortbow and the Longbow.

  • Shortbows tend to be lower-damage, lower-delay weapons that sometimes have bonuses to ranged accuracy.
  • Longbows are higher-damage and higher-delay weapons that sometimes carry with them boosts to ranged attack.

Some bows also have various other bonus stats, making them useful for more than just their ranged attack capability.

Archery Skill is the skill involved in ranged attacks executed with a bow.
