Range Safespots

[Lobby4]

I've decided to get into ranged again and have some questions. First off, where are some good safespots? If you safespot a dragon will it still breathe fire at you? And what exactly does ranged bonus do, makes you hit less zero's, right? And, I've heard that the arrows the crystal bow shoots are as god as rune arrows...true? Is that the same for Karil's Crossbow? Thanks alot! =P~

 

 

 

Edit: I have 71 ranged right now.

For the safespots, there is a good AOW article on that. All depends on what you are fighting.

 

 

 

Metal Dragons will breathe fire on you when you range them. The other dragons will not (except KDB).

 

 

 

Exactly right about the range bonus. It's like Attack in melee.

 

 

 

Crystal Bow is as good or better than rune arrows until it degrades to 2/10.

 

 

 

Don't have much experience with Karils. The bolts are expensive and you can't recover them. People mainly use them to range Ahrim since you get a lot of bolts from the chest in Barrows.

 

 

 

Since they upgraded the crossbows, they have become a great range weapon. The bolts can get expensive though unless you can smith your own.
