Archery Memanah

Live · v0.35

Shoot from up to 6 tiles away. A crab shot at six paces never reaches you, as Tok Ali says.

Equip a bow by clicking it in your pack. While a bow is in your hand, clicking a creature shoots it instead of walking up to it.

Shooting

You need a clear line: trees, buildings and people block a shot, water doesn't. The game walks you to the nearest spot within 6 tiles that has one. A shot every 4 ticks (2.4 s), and every shot at a creature uses an arrow, hit or miss.

accuracy = clamp( 50% + 3% × (Archery − its armour) + 2% × bow bonus, 20% … 92% ) max hit = 1 + floor( Archery / 4 ) + bow bonus XP = 4 × damage Archery, plus Body; the kill goes to Archery

Arrows

Arrows live in your quiver, not your pack. Tok Ali gives you 25 to start and 30 when you finish his lesson. Make ten at a time at the boatyard from 1 × timber and 1 × coconut fibre (Woodwork 2), or buy ten from Kak Yah for RM 3.

The practice range

Tok Ali's range on Perhentian has three straw targets. Stand three to six tiles back and click one. Practice arrows are free.

hit chance = clamp( 55% + 2.5% × (Archery − 1) + 2% × bow bonus, 30% … 95% ) score = 5 + a whole number below (3 + Archery / 5), at most 10 XP = 9 for a score of 9 or 10, otherwise 5

Ten hits finish Tok Ali's lesson.
