Noob Iron Arrow Question


iBorg

Recommended Posts

Okay Im a full noob but this is frustrating...

 

I cannot use Iron Arrows "on any bow" ... I get the ingame message: "your weapon isnt powerful enough for that ammunition"

 

I tried using a Shield Bow and Quick Bow made of normal wood.....

 

 

I have lvl 17 attack

Lvl 22 fletch

Lvl 21 ranged

 

I know it's something minor but I have searched and searched this website and all I read is: "works on any bow" without any limitations or mention of "skill level needed"

 

Thx in advance,

iBorg the noob

That's probably from the old combat system, where iron and bronze were both level 1. Under the new system, iron is level 5 iirc, putting it a step ahead of bronze and making it unusable by level 1 weapons, such as normal bows. Upgrading your weapon should fix your problem.

If you want to use iron arrows, i recommend you to get at least 25 ranged and 35 strength.

 

Also i recommend you to get willow, maple or higher bows.

 

You need higher ranged lvl for better bows.

 

Lvls for different types of bows:

 

Willow bows 20 ranged at least

Maple bows 30 ranged at least

Yew bows 40 ranged at least

Magic bows 50 ranged at least
