Arrows, Bolts, Greatarrows, and Greatbolts from different merchants all over the Lands Between. Be sure to mark their location on the map should you wish to return to them to purchase more.
Ammuntion usually costs Runes. You can farm runes by defeating enemies and then respawning them at Sites of Grace.
Arrows and Bolts can also be crafted once you have obtained the Crafting Kit and their required materials.
The Crafting Kit can be purchased from Merchant Kale for 300 Runes at the Church of Elleh.
How to Get Crafting Kit: Effects and Locations
Radahn's Spear greatarrows can be bought from the Finger Reader Enia at the Roundtable Hold for 800 Runes at the Equipment of Champions once you have given her after defeating Starscourge Radahn.
Enia, the Finger Reader Questline
Certain enemies may have a chance to drop arrows such as the Golem's Great Arrow and Perfumer's Bolt upon defeat.
To get increased chances of these items dropping, you need to boost your Arcane by using a Silver-Pickled Fowl Foot or equipping a Silver Scarab.
Ammo Type | Weapon Type | Perks |
---|---|---|
Arrows | Light Bows and Bows | ・Fast moveset ・Great for applying status |
Bolts | Crossbows | ・Generally deals more damage than bows |
Greatarrows | Greatbows | ・Generally faster than a Ballista while still dealing high damage |
Greatbolts | Ballista | ・Boasts the most damage per shot of the ranged weapon types |
Weapon performance may also depend on its Ash of War.
In order to use arrows and bolts, you will need to equip ranged weapons found throughout the Lands Between. Like every other weapon, they can be upgraded at a smith using Smithing Stones or Somber Smithing Stones.

Rainbow Stone Arrow. Need the Nomadic Warrior's Cookbook 7. Crafted with 3 Thin Beast Bones and 3 Ruin Fragments. Causes some kind of glow effect when arrow is drawn, on the enemy, and a shatter sound on impact. I'm not sure on the damage in comparison. Seems like it does more than regular arrows?
