Magic shortbow

The magic shortbow is a bow that requires level 50 Ranged in order to use, and is one of the few shortbows in the game with a Special attack. Because of this, it is often used for player killing and is usually the primary weapon of people training their Ranged level after level 50.

To make this bow, players need a fletching level of at least 80. They are also dropped in hard clue scrolls. This weapon also has a special attack, which will shoot two arrows in rapid succession but with lowered accuracy, using 55% of a player's special attack energy. With perfect timing, this bow can hit three times in one game tick.

The magic shortbow can be imbued by using a magic shortbow scroll on it. The imbued version increases its ranged attack bonus to +75 and lowers the special attack cost to 50%.
