'''Fletching''' is a [[skill]] which allows the player to create various types of [[ranged weapons]] and their [[ammunition]]. The products of this skill are primarily used in the combat skill, [[Ranged]]. It also provides some of the most popular materials used for [[High Alchemy]], which is a commonly used method for training the [[Magic]] skill.


At a higher Fletching level, the skill can be trained without losing any [[coins]], although a decent amount of working capital is very useful. Money can usually be generated at higher Fletching levels. Alternatively, it can be extremely fast with more expensive methods.
== Starting off ==


To start training [[Fletching]] you can type ::Fletching in game to teleport to the [[Fletching Tutor]]. The [[Fletching Tutor]] will sell you supplies to start training the skill. See the below table for details on what supplies you can purchase.{{StoreTableHead}}

== Zero time methods ==
 
These are the fastest methods to train '''[[Fletching]]''' because there is no animation stall between actions. However it requires work in advance to use this method on RoatPKZ. In order to obtain necessary materials you will have to smith them yourself.
==Materials used==
===Darts===
Fletchers use the following materials:

There is a spinning wheel on the {{FloorNumber|uk=1}} of the house north of the churchyard. Spinning flax gives 15 [[Crafting]] experience, and requires level 10 Crafting. Using the spinning wheel on the {{FloorNumber|uk=1}} of [[Lumbridge Castle]] is a favourite among players because of its proximity to the [[bank]] on the floor above.

==Making the items==
===Weapons===
====Bows====
To fletch bows, a player must use a [[knife]] on a log to whittle a short bow or long bow of that wood. Then, [[bow string]] must be attached to the unstrung bow. Bows, especially [[Yew longbow]]s and [[Magic longbow]]s, are frequently [[High Alchemy|high alched]] as a means of income.
 
====Unstrung====
{{Table/Fletching/Unstrung bows}}
 
====Strung====
{{Table/Fletching/Bows}}
 
====Crossbows====
To fletch crossbows, a player must make a [[crossbow stock]] out of a log using a [[knife]]. Then, [[crossbow limbs]] must be added using a [[hammer]]. Finally, a [[crossbow string]] must be added to the [[unstrung crossbow]].
 
{{Table/Fletching/Crossbows}}


====Ballistae====
===Level 1-5/10: Headless Arrows===
{{Table/Fletching/Ballistae}}
{{plinkp|Arrow shaft}}The best way to get from level 1 to level 5 is by fletching arrow shafts, which give 25 experience per log


====Battlestaff====
* Experience needed: 388/1154
{{Table/Fletching/Battlestaff}}


===Shields===
* {{plinkp|Logs}} Logs needed to Level 5/10:  16/47
To fletch [[Wooden Shields]], players must have at least two logs in the inventory. [[Wooden Shields]] are used as the base for [[leather shield]]s, which require [[Crafting]] levels to make.


Fletching wooden shields grants the same amount of Fletching experience as fletching a full longbow of the same level.
* [[File:Skilling_Point.png|link=|Skilling points]]to level 5/10: 320/940

!{{SCP|Fletching}}Levels
===Projectiles===
!Bow type
====Arrows====
!XP/action
To fletch arrows, use a [[knife]] on [[logs]] to create [[arrow shafts]]. Each log yields a variable amount of arrow shafts. Add [[feather]]s and arrow heads.
![[File:Skull_(status)_icon.png|link=|Wilderness Resource Area]] XP/action
 
!XP/h<br/>(fletching)
The following table shows experience per item made, although 15 items are made at a time:

{{Table/Fletching/Arrows}}
!XP/h[[File:Skull_(status)_icon.png|link=|Wilderness Resource Area]]<br/>(stringing)
 
!XP needed
====Ogre arrows====
[[Achey logs]] can be whittled into [[Ogre arrow]] shafts. Each achey log yields between two and six arrow shafts. Four [[feather]]s are needed for each shaft. The shafts may be tipped with [[wolf bones|wolf bone]] arrow heads or with [[nail]]s. Ogre shafts tipped with nails are called "[[Brutal arrows|brutals]]" and are especially useful for killing [[Zogre]]s. Any type of metal may be used for the nails.
 
{{Table/Fletching/Ogre arrows}}
 
====Bolts====
[[Bolts]] are the standard ammunition for [[Crossbow (weapon)|crossbows]]. They are created by combining [[unfinished bolts]] with [[feather]]s. One feather is consumed for every unfinished bolt and finished bolts are created in stacks of 10.
 
{{Table/Fletching/Bolts}}
 
====Tipped bolts====
Finished bolts can be improved by adding bolt tips to them. For example, [[Sapphire bolt tips]] can be attached to [[Mithril bolts]] to create [[Sapphire bolts]]. Improved bolts can be enchanted using the [[Enchant Crossbow Bolt]] spell.
 
{{Table/Fletching/Tipped bolts}}
 
====Tipped dragon bolts====
[[Dragon bolts]] are unique in that they can tipped with any type of [[bolt tip]], except [[Barb bolttips|barbed]] and [[Amethyst bolt tips|amethyst]].
 
{{Table/Fletching/Tipped dragon bolts}}
 
====Bolt tips====
[[Bolt tips]] are also created through the Fletching skill. By using a [[chisel]] on a cut [[gem]], the player is able to create 12 bolt tips. [[Pearls]] are an exception, as they yield either 6 or 24 depending on the type of pearl used.
 
{{Table/Fletching/Bolt tips}}
 
====Kebbit bolts====
[[Kebbit bolts]] are exclusively used with the [[Hunter's crossbow]]. They are made by using a [[chisel]] on [[kebbit spike]]s and [[long kebbit spike]]s.
 
{{Table/Fletching/Kebbit bolts}}
 
====Grapples====
[[Mith grapple]]s are used in the [[Agility]] skill to pass specific [[Shortcuts|obstacles]].
 
{{Table/Fletching/Mith grapple}}
 
====Darts====
You can fletch [[dart]]s by adding [[feather]]s to a smithed dart.
 
{{Table/Fletching/Darts}}
 
====Javelin====
[[Javelin]]s are made by attaching [[javelin heads]] to [[javelin shafts]].

==Trivia==
*There was once an error with the chat filter that led to the word 'Fletching' being blocked when typed in chat for an entire day because it was too similar to the sexual term ''[[wiktionary:felching|felching]]''.
*In real life, "fletching" refers to aerodynamic stabilizers (such as feathers) that are attached to arrows. To "fletch" an arrow means to attach feathers to it. It is technically inaccurate that bows are "fletched" in ''RuneScape'', since there is no point at which feathers are attached to a bow. Bows are instead described as being "crafted" by a bowyer.
