The ranged skill is used for attacking players or monsters from a distance with weapons such as bows and arrows, throwing knives* and many others. This skill is useful if you prefer to fight a foe from a distance, using hit and run tactics to avoid damage yourself. Range is also particularly effective against Mages, so is a useful skill when fighting magic users. A number of your arrows will land on the ground by your target so you can go and use them again, however some will be lost as they are damaged upon impact.
