The training bow works for beginers and the higher you get the better bows you can get make sure to replace your old bow as soon as possible when a new one opens up.
A Rune Crossbow is better to train Range with than Magic Short, Long or composite bow.
too get to level 99 range (or any skill) on runescape, you have to train it. this will take along time! in the case of range, you must have a bow and arrow (or a crassbow with bolts) and you must use these range items on a monster, person or anything attackable! as you get too a higher level, you will be able to upgrade your bows and range items!
You need 30 range.
well in my opinion you if you are a high enough level take some arrows and a bow go range giants of some sort and then bury their bones or just buy the bones but then you wouldn't get range exp
I think the max hit with a magic bow is a 30.
i am level 99 range in runescape and the best ranger armour and bow and arrows to use are black dragon hide chaps,coif,body,vambraces,amulet of range,dark bow only ussable above lvl60 and dargon bows hope this helped add me if you have any question (CYCLON3X111)or(illdog9512)
runescape training involves hitting any monster with magic, ranged, and melee the more advanced bows only work with certain arrows and you need a higher level at level 30 you can get a oak bow i believe or is it a willow no matter the more more advanced the arrow is the more advanced your bow has to be the more you inflict high damage the more xp you get in range. ~Angelsblade0 says,~ the fastest, and most efficiant ways are two diffrent ways. the fastest way is to go to chaos tunnes mummies', or apetoll zombie monkies with chins, range/pray pots, and the best range armour u can get(full void or arma wuld be recomended). the most effeciant way to train range is training while doing slayer assingments as your leveling two skills at once.
Mage short because it is faster but buy the dark bow for the d arrow spec. Or even if you have 64 range+ i hit a 29-21 with the spec when i was 64 range now im happily 68. but i dont train it. gooooooooo get ur self a d bow and mage short plus d bows are goin up so its good to merchant!
It has a certain distance for each kind of bow or crossbow or any ranged weapon. They each have their advantages and disadvantages. You should test out each weapons distance on a low level monster.
The better bow to train range with within Runescape is most likely the magic shortbow, this is because of the one disadvantage the dark bow has while training range, the dark bow is so slow between hits that if you are ranging in a single combat area, another player can steal your monster between hits, therefore the magic shortbow is a much more pratical bow to use but if u use a dark bow u can make money easy as well as training, because of the spec that the dark bow has. so it all up to u realy on what u like better. hope i have helped. (you could use a magic shortbow to shoot with speed, then use the dark bow spec which its ready, then go back to the magic shortbow and repeat etc)
you need to use your book of power to first weaken him, and then you need to sh00t him in the eye with an arrow from your bow
I think u need to be level 40 or 50. I would bring a friend bow just to be safe, though.
