Quick Guide
JUST want archery? Buy a nemesis bow, a quiver and put 1 bolt in the quiver. Wield bow, wear quiver, you're done. You will shoot twice per round. See below to make it better.
Who should use Archery
Every cleric and mage should have an archery mode. The best thieves will have archery too. Warriors never use archery (despite having the archery skill.)
Basic archery items
To be an archer, you need a bow (or crossbow), a quiver, and at least one arrow (or bolt for crossbow).
Archery vs Throwing
It is easy to lose your throwing weapons. In contrast, you can never lose your arrows. After you throw, the throwing weapon appears in the target's inventory if you hit and on the ground if miss. When you shoot an arrow (or bolt), it stays in your inventory. If the arrow was in a quiver, it gets moved to your inventory.
Reloading your quiver
When you shoot an arrow (or bolt) from your quiver, it gets moved into your inventory. Thus, you must reload your quiver.
Shooting twice per round
TBD: Need a quiver and at least one arrow in the quiver, even if your bow automagically makes its arrows. (Nemesis crossbow needs 1 bolt in the quiver)
Archery Damage
TBD formula for archery damage
Your arrow misses
TBD - how to avoid missing. Arrows cannot be parried
