1.2) Arrows

Arrows are projectiles used with a bow. You can use an arrow as a piercing weapon and stab the target, but arrows are most effective when shot by a bow.  You can reclaim your arrows from the targets you shoot as long as the arrow hasn't broken. Arrows automatically do 10% damage directly to the target's HP (bypassing armor).
