This article is about an older version of DF.

Ballista arrows are created at a Template:L and used as ammunition by a Template:L. Wooden ballista arrows are made using one log, and (presumably)[Verify] more powerful ones can be made using one log plus a metal Template:L from the Template:L.

Although in previous versions of Dwarf Fortress, ballista bolts were second only to drawbridges in causing certain death for those on the business end of it, since the combat overhaul, bolts have become significantly weaker, dealing only blunt damage despite presumably being fired tip-first. The result is much bruising, occasional shattered bones, and only rarely a death from a shattered spine or crushed skull.
