+====== Missile Weapons ======
+==== Description ====
+Missile weapons are a category of weapons in Remixed Pixel Dungeon that can be thrown at enemies. Unlike regular thrown items, missile weapons have specific stats and can be upgraded like other weapons.
+==== Types ====
+  * [[rpd:boomerang|Boomerang]] - Returns to the player after being thrown
+  * [[rpd:common_arrow|Arrows]] - Ammunition for ranged weapons
+  * [[rpd:javelin|Javelin]] - Thrown spear
+  * [[rpd:dart|Dart]] - Basic throwing projectile
+  * [[rpd:shuriken|Shuriken]] - Ninja throwing stars
+==== Mechanics ====
+  * Missile weapons can be aimed at enemies to deal damage
+  * Thrown weapons use the player's accuracy stat to determine if they hit
+  * Most missile weapons have durability and will be lost after use (except for the boomerang)
+  * Missile weapons can benefit from accuracy bonuses like rings of accuracy
+  * Some missile weapons can be enchanted like regular weapons
+==== Upgradable Missile Weapons ====
+  * [[rpd:boomerang|Boomerang]] is the only missile weapon that can be upgraded
+  * Each upgrade increases its damage range (MIN += 1, MAX += 2)
+==== Throwing Speed ====
+  * Different missile weapons have different throwing speeds
+  * Throwing speed affects how quickly the weapon travels to the target
+  * Speed values are defined in the weapon's DLY (delay) stat
+==== Special Properties ====
+  * The **Boomerang** has the unique property of returning to the player after being thrown
+  * **Arrows** must be used with compatible ranged weapons like bows
+  * Some missile weapons have special effects when they hit
