Ironman verdict

Bronze crossbow is a members item. Other players trade it, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade, so you get your own. We list 1 recipe and 1 other source for it.

You can make it yourself with 9 Fletching from Bronze crossbow (u) and Crossbow string. Each one made gives 6 Fletching XP. It also comes from Crate (Armadyl's Eyrie).

Materials you can buy or make: Bronze crossbow (u), made with 9 Fletching; Crossbow string, made with 10 Crafting.

It is worn in the one-handed weapons slot, attacking every 6 ticks; its biggest bonus is +18 ranged attack.

No recipe in our data uses it as a material. High Alchemy (55 Magic) turns one into 43 coins. Each cast uses a nature rune, 180 coins from a rune shop, and five fire runes that a fire staff replaces, so an alch loses about 137 coins; only alch it to clear space.
