Bows and Arrows Item

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.

• 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

• The 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

• 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).
• 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.
• 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.

• 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.
• Fire Arrow - Ignites the enemy on hit. Base damage 1-6. Base delay 0.75. Has a 25% chance to apply burning effect when hitting an enemy.
• Frost Arrow - Slows down the enemies affected. Base damage 2-3. Base delay 0.75. Has a 25% chance to apply freezing effect when hitting an enemy.
• Poison Arrow - Poisons the enemy. Base damage 3-4. Base delay 0.75. Has a 25% chance to apply poison effect when hitting an enemy. Poison duration increases with the bow's level.
• Paralysis Arrow - Paralyzes opponents. Base damage 2-5. Base delay 0.75. Has a 25% chance to apply paralysis effect when hitting an enemy.
• Health Arrow - Heals the hero when used by a hero. Base damage 1-2. Base delay 1.0. Has a 25% chance to provide healing when hitting an enemy.
• Amok Arrow - Causes the target to attack random creatures. Base damage 1-2. Base delay 1.0. Has a 25% chance to cause amok effect when hitting an enemy.

• Special arrows (Fire, Frost, Poison, Paralysis, Health, Amok) are created by using potions on regular arrows

• Potion of Frost on regular arrows creates Frost Arrows
• Potion of Toxic Gas on regular arrows creates Poison Arrows
• Potion of Paralytic Gas on regular arrows creates Paralysis Arrows
