Hmm true but who really cares, I'm used to seeing the bow in the right hand. Good point though.

Yeah, It'd probably be a real setback to reprogram all the characters to hold bows in their left hands . . . then, what'd you do about xbows? Not sure how you'd hold 'em.

Runescape's crossbows are so weird :P . you're not supposed to hold a crossbow with one hand!

You can fire it once with one hand, but reloading would be difficult....

I just realised that too, but perhaps your player is both left and right handed?

And personally, I fire bows holding my right hand, but I'm right handed. (I practice archery irl)

Hes saying you should HOLD it with your left hand, if you hold it with your right that means you're using the left hand to shoot, so if you hold it with the left you use the right hand to shoot.

well, you used to carry your sword in your left hand, the switch to the right hand when you started fighting.

Look, if your mom still drops you off at school, you ain't gangsta, pull up your damn pants!

3 down, 7 to go

jagex probably know but why waste time recoding the whole weapon set so that they locate in the shield hand just so your character is not ampidextorous. Much easier to keep it simple

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

weapons go to right hand

 

 

 

shields go to left hand

agreed lol

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

and to the person who mentioned they "range" in rl with their left and are right-handed: i've found it quite common that ppl do a majority of tasks with their dominant hand but do a single or even a few tasks with the other. i had a friend once that was left-handed in everything except writing. he was as bad with his left as most are. and personally i do eveything right handed but brushing my teeth =\

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i noticed this a long time ago when i 1st started thieving. if equip a bow but no arrows u cant accidently attack them. it got me started thinking that the bow hand was off but i 4got about it as soon as i noticed lol

if only runescape was real lol :shock:

i realised something else aswell, i cant actually use magic in real life.. they really ought to fix that up before someone else notices

Ever seen a granite maul?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You hold it the wrong way.

See?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Try holding an imagnary maul-handle right now. If you're right-handed, your right hand would autimatically go on top. Well, see in the pic, the right hand's on the bottom.

I've stopped playing RuneScape. KoL's better.

I'm right handed, I hold bow and sword with my right hand.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's easier with my right hand. It'd got more strength to keep hold of the bow while pulling the string back, and I can aim better with my arm.

  • Author

no you really auttally need more strenght to pull back the arrow its esay to hold a bow in the weaker hand have you tryed using a comp bow

No, I don't go shooting Chompies irl.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've held a, normal bow? lol

NO WAY. I'm going to quit RuneScape now.
