Ranged
From the Pantheon Wiki
Ranged allows you to attack from a distance using bows, crossbows, and thrown weapons. It offers an accuracy stat, strength bonus from ammunition, and unlocks powerful equipment tiers from shortbows up to the Twisted Bow. Many endgame bosses are significantly easier with high Ranged.

Training methods
Base XP values match the original. Pantheon applies a 150x multiplier — multiply any base value below by 150 for in-game XP.
| Level | Method | Location | Base XP | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-40 | Iron / mithril arrows on shortbow — Sand Crabs | Hosidius, Zeah | 30 | Cheap and effective. Pick up arrows between kills to save gold. |
| 40-70 | Rune arrows / Maple shortbow — Slayer tasks with cannon | Slayer task locations | 60 | Using a cannon on tasks massively accelerates Ranged XP. Requires Dwarf Cannon quest. |
| 70-85 | Toxic blowpipe (mithril darts) — Nightmare Zone | Nightmare Zone, Yanille | 150 | Blowpipe heals as it attacks, making it semi-AFK with absorptions. Fastest Ranged XP before chinchompas. |
| 80-99 | Red / black chinchompas — Ape Atoll dungeon | Ape Atoll Underground | 1500 | Chinchompas hit 3x3 AoE. Red chins at skeletal monkeys give the fastest Ranged XP in the game — expensive but unmatched. |
| 85-99 | Slayer (blowpipe / crossbow) — Nieve / Duradel tasks | Task-dependent | 180 | Productive dual-purpose method. Prioritise Ranged tasks (Dragons, Wyrms, Hydra) for best XP. |
