First Appearance |
Update 0.3.3 |
Arrows are Items added in Update 0.3.3. They are used as ammunition for the secondary weapon, the Bow.
Types[]
- Normal Arrows
- Tipped Arrows - Added in Update 0.15.0, these arrows are tipped with a Status Effect by tapping a Cauldron with a Potion in it, or by crafting.
Obtaining[]
Arrows can be crafted by the Player using a Crafting Table. They can also be dropped by Skeletons and be found in Jungle Temple Dispensers.
After Update 1.0.4, Arrows can also be Traded for using Emeralds.
Crafting[]
Usage[]
Arrows serve as ammunition for a Bow. They can also be shot out of a Dispenser. The damage done by an Arrow is directly proportional to its speed. However, an Arrow fired by a Dispensr will always do lower damage than that fired by a Bow. Fired Arrows behave as entities.
Trivia[]
- Shot arrows do not affect Endermen, as they would teleport away right before the arrow touches them, but if the arrow is tipped, the Enderman will take the effect.
- Fully charged arrows can deal a massive amount of damage (4 1/2 Heart Damage), enough to kill a Spider in two hits.
- Arrows are slower underwater, and in Lava. They also have a different, parabolic-like direction when shot underwater (as of Update 0.13.0).
- The Player doesn't have to stack arrows if they have an Infinity Enchanted Bow.
- Arrows shot by Skeletons cannot be picked up.
- If the Player shoots an arrow at any floating Sand or Gravel blocks, the corresponding blocks will fall.
- Before Update 1.0.4, when Arrows hits an opaque block, the Arrow will darken.
- Arrows are the first of two items that can be equipped in the off-hand slot after Update 1.1, the second being the Totem of Undying.
- When shot out of a Bow enchanted with Flame, the arrow will have a fire effect as it is shot, and will set any mob it hits on fire.
- Some mobs are resistant to this.
