+====== Bows and Arrows ======
+In Remixed Pixel Dungeon there is a new type of weapons - bows. Any class can use a bow, but only an elf can do damage by firing arrows at close range. Arrows are required in order to use a bow. Bows can also perform melee attacks, but they are completely ineffective in close combat for all classes except elves.
+==== How Bows Work ====
+  * Bows are ranged weapons that require arrows to function
+  * When equipped with arrows, bows allow the player to attack enemies at range
+  * Only elves can deal significant damage when firing arrows at close range (adjacent squares)
+  * Other classes deal very little damage when shooting arrows at close range
+  * Bows have specific accuracy and delay factors that affect their performance
+  * Bow performance is enhanced by the bow's level and attributes
+==== Quiver ====
+  * The [[rpd:quiver|Quiver]] is a special bag that can store any amount of arrows
+  * It is sold by the shopkeeper in the Town level for 50 gold
+  * Unlike what some sources might suggest, the quiver does not specifically protect arrows from burning
+  * It simply provides unlimited storage for arrows
+===== Bows List =====
+  * [[rpd:elven_bow|Wooden Bow]] (appears as "ElvenBow" in code) - The simplest bow. Requires 10 strength. Has 1.2x accuracy factor and 1.0x delay factor. Burns in fire (returns null when burned).
+  * [[rpd:compound_bow|Compound Bow]] - A more advanced bow. Requires 14 strength. Has 0.8x accuracy factor and 1.5x delay factor. Also burns in fire like the wooden bow.
+  * [[rpd:ruby_bow|Ruby Bow]] - The most powerful bow with the highest base damage. Requires 18 strength to use. Has 0.8x accuracy factor and 1.5x delay factor. Base damage factor increases by 1 per level (much higher than other bows). Also burns in fire.
+===== Arrows List =====
+  * [[rpd:common_arrow|Common Arrow]] - Regular arrow without any special effect. Base damage 1-2. Base delay 1.0. All other types of arrows are obtained by using potions on them.

+==== Obtaining Special Arrows ====
+  * Special arrows (Fire, Frost, Poison, Paralysis, Health, Amok) are created by using potions on regular arrows
