How to Craft and Load the Switch-Bow

Crafting the Switch-Bow

The Switch-Bow is your core tool. Craft it with a shaped recipe using sticks and string in the standard bow layout, then place the Switch-Bow in your inventory. The Switch-Crossbow is a separate ranged weapon you can also craft if you prefer crossbow handling.

Loading Arrows

Hold the Switch-Bow and have arrows in your inventory or in a Quiver. Right-click to draw and fire. The bow accepts every arrow type in the mod, including Air-Arrow, Bone-Arrow, Fire-Arrow, Frost-Arrow, TNT-Arrow, Teleport-Arrow, and the rest. To switch which arrow type fires, cycle through the arrows you are carrying; the bow uses whatever arrow variant is selected.

Managing Ammo

A Quiver holds arrows so they do not clutter your hotbar. Craft a Quiver, then a Big-Quiver for larger capacity. Fill the Quiver with the arrow types you want available, and the Switch-Bow draws from it. The Arrow-Dispenser block can also store and fire arrows automatically when powered, which is useful for traps and farms.

Quick Tips

• Keep at least one stack of a basic arrow such as Reinforced Arrow for everyday use.
• Carry specialty arrows like Thunder-Arrow or Wither-Arrow for tougher targets.
• The Pedestal block can display a Switch-Bow or arrows as decoration.
