Gamers that prefer engaging with enemies from afar can spec into the Archery skill tree in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim. In addition to increased damage and critical hit chance, it offers some useful perks like being able to move faster with a bow drawn or the ability to recover more arrows from dead bodies. Like many games that feature bow combat, arrows are not unlimited and players need to either buy or craft them if they run out. Although, one Skyrim fan appears to be saving a ton of arrows for a rainy day.

A user named Peterlerock has shared an image from The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim showing off their massive collection of 3,096 Dragonbone arrows. Peterlerock mentions that one day they will start using up these arrows instead of standard iron arrows in Skyrim. However, it looks like Dragonbone arrows are not that useful later on, as the player claims that they don’t scale with smithing or archery enhancements, so the damage difference is negligible in the late game.

Peterlerock only crafted Dragonbone arrows because they had several dragon bones and didn’t know what else to do with them. Players looking to craft Dragonbone arrows first need to get their Smithing to level 100 and then unlock the Dragon Armor perk in the same skill tree. This perk also allows fans to create other pieces of equipment that utilize Dragon items in Skyrim as an ingredient.

It looks like saving high-damage arrows for tough Skyrim bosses is a common practice, as many other players report doing the same in their playthroughs. One user also mentions saving scrolls and poisons for tough enemy encounters. Some fans later discuss various exploits present in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim that can help other players amass a massive number of Dragonbone arrows.

One user points out a neat trick of saving arrows in the game. Skyrim followers like Lydia don’t use up the arrow whenever they fire one, giving them an infinite number of arrows for combat encounters. Players can then pick up the fired arrow from the dead body or the ground, allowing them to effectively duplicate their stock without much effort.
