Bow


Skilltree: Weapon
Description:
The Bow skill-line is part of the "Weapons" category in the Elder Scrolls Online. The Bow skill-line has active skills that you can activate during combat and passive skills that are always active as long as you have a Bow weapon slotted. The skill-line is also often referred to as Archery.

How do you unlock the Bow skill-line?


The Bow skill-line is granted to you after killing an enemy with a Bow weapon. You can use any random Bow that you bought or picked up from a monster to uncover the Bow skill-line.

How do you level up the Bow skill-line?


To level up the Bow skill-line in the Elder Scrolls Online you have to either equip a Bow or slot skills from the Bow skill-line. Having more Bow skills slotted on your active bar will increase the amount of experience that you gain towards the skill-line. To level up the Bow skill-line, you can simply kill monsters or complete quests to gain experience points. Reading books from bookshelves in the Elder Scrolls Online can also sometimes increase your level in the Bow skill-line.

The damage numbers of the skills that you see below are used for comparison. The numbers are based on a naked level 50 character without any skills, passives, attributes and champion points allocated. Your damage numbers will change depending on what gear, skills, attributes, champion points, enchantments or buffs your character has.
