A Ranger knows that combat takes many forms, and that while standing toe to<br />
toe and the melee are often what such fights come down to, it is infinitely<br />
preferable to take out a foe before he can even get close to you. This<br />
principle is, of course, that used in hunting, so it is no wonder that a<br />
Ranger understands this better than most.<br />
<br />
While others have to purchase their weapons from specialists, when it comes<br />
to the bow, each and every Ranger IS just such a specialist. No Ranger<br />
need ever worry about being without his or her bow, as one can be easily<br />
fashioned as needed.<br />
<br />
It requires a number of components to make a bow, but so long as he or she<br />
remembers to pick up a bow string from the clearing before leaving, it<br />
shouldn't<br />
be difficult to find the other components in any woodland. This, when combined<br />
with the fletching ability, means that a proficient bowyer need never worry<br />
about running out of either arrows, or the bow needed to fire them.<br />
<br />
There are four bows that can be crafted at the moment, which are listed<br />
below:<br />

Each bow has a minimum skill required to make it ('skill'), so as a Ranger<br />
improves his or her skills, so too does their ability to craft more powerful<br />
weapons. See also help bowyer.<br />
<br />
Because such bows are so powerfully strung, they can not be shot by<br />
anyone - only a Ranger could hope to use such a bow, and even then, only<br />
one who is strong enough to draw it back.<br />
<br />
Combined together, the Ranger abilities at bowying, fletching, foraging and<br />
hunting mean that they need never rely on 'civilization', and can spend<br />
years at a time in the wilds.<br />
