About Arrow

Arrows are the standard ammunition for bows and crossbows. Dispensers can also fire them as projectiles. They fly in a shallow arc and are affected by gravity, so you need to aim above distant targets.

A plain arrow stacks to 64. Arrows you fire yourself can often be picked up again if they miss and stick into a block. You can also coat arrows with potions to make tipped arrows, or use spectral arrows to mark enemies.

How to get Arrow

You can craft four arrows at a time from one flint, one stick, and one feather. Skeletons are another steady source, since they drop arrows when killed. Fletcher villagers sell arrows, and you can find them in loot chests in several structures, such as dungeons and pillager outposts.
