You should always be on the lookout for better arrows, as the damage difference between iron and Daedric arrows is significantly larger than between any other iron and Daedric weapon. Arrows and bolts can be crafted if you have the Dawnguard add-on. Most bows and crossbows can be upgraded at a grindstone based on perks invested in Smithing. (5.5 * 5 = 27.5 at 100 skill and Deadly Bash 5x damage perk.) Additionally, having high skill in Block and the Deadly Bash perk will cause the strike to inflict significant damage. Doing so costs a small amount of Stamina but will stagger the foe, giving you time to set up a shot, flee to a safer distance, or switch to a melee weapon. While you have a bow equipped you cannot block attacks however, you can perform a melee strike with the bow by pressing the ' Block' button. Since there is no hit location recognition in Skyrim, trying to achieve headshots will not cause increased damage, but rather may cause your shot to miss if you do not properly account for the arrow's trajectory. The Eagle Eye perk decreases the influence of gravity, so do not aim as high as you would normally. If the target is farther away, then aim slightly above it, as gravity has an influence on trajectory. The Steady Hand perk affects neither the speed of the arrow, nor the enemy, so lead your target the same as if time was not slowed. If the target is moving, aim where they are going to be, as arrows are a rather slow projectile. To compensate, you should aim just below the intended target. When shooting an arrow, you will discover that arrows have significant 'loft', or upwards movement, particularly at medium ranges (See Notes). The trajectory and speed of arrows are independent of a character's skill level in Archery only damage increases with skill level. Drawn bows can be cancelled by pressing the ' Sheath Weapon' button. Misfired arrows launched before fully drawing the bow result in a damage penalty. †Īrrow damage is the sum of the quality and material of the bow and the arrow being used, augmented by the bow's draw length.
