Copper Bow & Arrows


 * "Ranged weapon."

A copper bow & arrows is a weapon used for ranged attacks. It was introduced in version 1.4.

Appearance
It is a brown curve with a white string. When it is the selected item, a blockhead can be seen holding it by the lower end of the curve, the string facing away.

Where Found
It can be crafted on a level 2 tool bench from 50 sticks, 5 copper ingots, 5 dodo feathers, and 1 string.

Use
With the bow selected, tapping on a target will fire an arrow into it. It has a maximum range, so if the target is out of range, the firing blockhead will move closer first. Each shot wears down the bow.

Hitting with a bow is weaker than hand attacks (taking about twice as many strokes in most cases), and has a maximum range (if the target is out of range, a blockhead will move closer before firing) as well as wears down with each shot. The arrows cannot miss, but it does provoke attacks from hostile creatures such as dropbears and scorpions. Of course, you could also use it hand to hand, but it would not work well, as earlier stated.
