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[]

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.
