Editing Damage (section)

=== Ranged Weapon Damage Reduction ===

This damage reduction in particular affects archers, but actually applies to any attacker using a bow.  Ranged weapons have a '''50%''' damage reduction if the target is closer than the minimum effective range of the weapon.

{| {{DefTable}}
|Weapon Type || Minimum <br>Effective Range
|-
| Crossbow || 5.5m
|-
| Bow || 5m
|-
| Slingshot || 4.5m
|}

Most archer skills suffer from this range reduction.  The ones that have no minimum effective range are Winged Pledge, Wingspan, and the metal-dealing skills.
