An Arrow is a projectile used as ammunition for bows and crossbows, dealing damage to mobs and players when fired. It can be crafted using a flint, a stick, and a feather or obtained as loot from skeletons, strays, and pillagers. Arrows can also be found in chests in structures such as bastions and village fletchers.

When shot from a bow, an Arrow travels in an arc and deals more damage when fully charged. Arrows fired from a crossbow travel faster and can be loaded in advance. Special arrows, such as spectral arrows and tipped arrows, provide additional effects, including glowing outlines or potion effects on impact. Arrows can be retrieved if they miss a target and land on a solid block, but fired arrows despawn after one minute if not picked up.
