Flaming arrows are considered by most to be mostly useless, but there are times they come in handy.  

Flaming arrows are considered by many to be mostly useless, but there are times they come in handy.  

Flaming arrows come with a slew of penalties. They travel 4 range increments fewer than a normal arrow, they deal 2 damage die less (minimum 1), and they take a -4 to attack as they fly rather poorly. For any benefits to apply they must be lit immediately before firing - this requires 2 [[AP]] to ensure that it is properly lit. This usually requires appropriate tools and a survival check as well (costing further AP), though canny archers will light a torch or brazer before firing and use this to light their arrows.
