Starting off
Fletching is a skill that is trained from the results of Woodcutting. An in-depth Woodcutting guide can be found here: Woodcutting
The Fletching skill is a result of taking a log, and turning it into an unstrung bow, then adding a bow string to it to make a completed, usable bow.
You can also make arrow shafts from the logs, which are in returned used with feathers to make headless arrows, and paired with arrowtips to make arrows.
Another common method is feathering dart tips.
How do I start Fletching?
Fletching can be started anywhere in Xeros, but is commonly trained at banks, so you can obtain a new inventory of items to fletch.
Starting out, you need Logs of different tiers, either obtained through Woodcutting, or by other Players.
Once you have a log of the required level, you use a knife on it, to either turn into arrow shafts, or more commonly unstrung bows, then using a bowstring to make a completed bow.
If you opt to make arrow shafts, you’ll need feathers to use on them, to make headless arrows which in return can be used to make arrows.
Money Tip: To get the knife or feathers required for Fletching, you’ll want to head over to the Skilling Island. You can get here either by using the ::skill command, or by navigating the Teleport Interface > Skilling > Skilling Island. Place shopkeerp.png
Once there, you’ll want to talk to “Shop Keeper” and purchase either a Knife or multiple Feathers.
Knife - 6gp each
Feathers - 36gp each
