How does this work or not work? I wspec1 for arrows if i want to use any of the bows or bolts if i want to use any of the crossbows...but can I bond with either?

My thoughts with this are along the same lines as Rathboner. It might be technically possible to bond with an arrow/bolt... but, unless you intend on using it as a melee weapon rather then shooting it, you'll eventually lose your bonded weapon when it flies off into the distance.

<So yes, you could bond to a bow or to an arrow, but it is indeed tedious.>

Bonding requires you to have three ranks in Specialization for the weapon type of the weapon you want to bond with. Since you can't specialize in bows or crossbows, it shouldn't be possible to bond with them. Arrows are fair game, though I don't know why any but a Zelian would want to....

This whole thread does have me thinking about getting my rogue training in OHE as a post-cap goal just so he can thrust his arrows into the eyes of orcs like Legolas, though.
