A '''dark elven arrow''' is a type of [[weapon]] that appears in [[SLASH'EM]], [[SpliceHack]] and [[SlashTHEM]]. It is a [[stackable]] [[projectile]] that is designed for use with a [[Dark elven bow (SLASH'EM)|dark elven bow]], and uses the [[bow]] [[skill]]. It is made of [[adamantine]], and appears as a '''black runed arrow''' when [[identification|unidentified]].

==Generation==
Dark elven arrows are not randomly generated.

[[Drow (starting race)|Drow]] characters start the game with knowledge of the dark elven arrow. Drow [[Ranger]]s start the game with a dark elven bow and two stacks of dark elven arrows.{{refsrc|makemon.c|359|version=SLASH'EM 0.0.7E7F2}}

General [[store]]s, used armor dealerships and antique weapon outlets can sell dark elven arrows.

Drow in [[Drow (SLASH'EM)|SLASH'EM, SlashTHEM]] [[Drow (SpliceHack)|and SpliceHack]] [[Monster starting inventory|always generate with]] a dark elven bow and 3-14 dark elven arrows.{{refsrc|makemon.c|367|version=SLASH'EM 0.0.7E7F2}}

[[Upgrading]] [[arrow]]s has a {{frac|3}} chance of producing dark elven arrows.{{refsrc|potion.c|2278|version=SLASH'EM 0.0.7E7F2}}

===SpliceHack===
In SpliceHack, normally-generated dark elven arrows are always created [[drugged]].

==Description==
The dark elven arrow is nearly identical to the [[elven arrow]] minus its appearance, and has the same damage versus small and large monsters.

Upgrading dark elven arrows will produce regular arrows.

+The dark elven arrow is nearly identical to the [[elven arrow]] minus its appearance: it has the same damage versus small and large monsters, though it lacks the elven arrow's {{frac|3}} chance of a [[multishot]] bonus.  Unlike ordinary elves using elven equipment, droven characters do not gain any racial multishot bonuses from using dark elven gear.
 Upgrading dark elven arrows will produce regular arrows.{{refsrc|potion.c|2270|version=SLASH'EM 0.0.7E7F2}}
 ==Strategy==
-Dark elven arrows are among the best type of arrows, but are much harder to find than the other types. Some drow Rangers may be tempted to trade off their starting arrows for elven arrows to take advantage of the multishot bonus (or more ideally upgrade them using unwanted {{! of|gain level}} [[potion]]s), and may also consider collecting and enchanting [[ya]] for the [[to-hit]] bonus and better damage against large monsters.
