Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })How do you show an archer to have Improbable Aiming Skills Up to Eleven? Have him loose multiple arrows at once from the same bow! Who needs Automatic Crossbows when your archer can kill five people at the same time? While technically possible in Real Life, it is very difficult to aim and loosing two arrows would cut the force behind each arrow in half, ruining the range and impact. However, sometimes archers shooting en masse would opt for volume of arrows over accuracy and force. Shooting more than two arrows only appears in fiction, as loosing n arrows means a force of 1/n, quickly putting you in Annoying Arrows territory. Compare with the Automatic Crossbow. One of the variants of the Spread Shot. |

All archer classes in ''Maplestory' love this trope. All archers in the game can (and should) be shooting two arrows minimum from the time they can wield a bow/crossbow/dual bowgun. By the time they hit endgame status, they loose either 8-16 arrows per second or a volley of 8-10. | |

Mina Makijina of Samurai Shodown fame does this in a few variations, including her super move, where she lobs practically the entire contents of her quiver into the air and then catches and shoots each arrow as they come down, at a speed that seems more in tune with a machine gun. | |

In Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, scattershot is a tier 5 finesse ability which allows you to shoot up to 7 charged arrows at once at the cost of one arrow. Combined with certain passive abilities and wearing critical boosting armor this is ridiculously overpowered. | |

Dragon Age: Strangely enough, Dragon Age: Origins does not have such a skill for archer. However, the top-level Archer ability called Scattershot does something similar: if the arrow hits the target, it then splits into 10 and hits the 10 nearest enemies. That is some vicious splintering. In Dragon Age II the Hail of Arrows ability is Exactly What It Says on the Tin. The archer looses a bundle of arrows into the air for an area of effect attack that makes the page images look downright realistic. |

In Might and Magic VI to IX the Master rank of the Bow skill (which also covers crossbows) makes you loose two arrows on every attack. In VI this was the top rank, while in IX the Grandmaster rank makes you loose three arrows on every attack (in VII and VIII the Grandmaster rank made the skill add directly to damage — considerably more powerful, but not as cool-looking). | |

An interesting case with Uryuu Ishida in Bleach. His bow doesn't actually shoot regular arrows, but projectiles made of spiritual particles that he produces himself. As a result, the trope is not only justified, but taken up to eleven, since he can liberate an absurd amount of arrows in a matter of seconds. During the Hueco Mundo arc he was able loose 1,200 arrows at a time, and after the Time Skip he can probably do even more. | |

Done on Arrow, while Ollie is drugged and not sure to hit his target, who just said that he didn't think Arrow could aim a single arrow, he just decides to shoot three. Although in point of fact, only one of them hits his target. The shot was also taken from barely 10 feet away from the target, sidestepping the 'reduced power' issue. | |

Warframe lets every bow (and really every non-melee weapon) do this with multishot mods, but two examples stand out by virtue of being able to do this innately. First up, there's the weapon summoned by Ivara's ultimate ability, Artemis Bow, which releases seven arrows at once at max rank; the angle of the spread changes as a shot is charged, starting vertical and ending horizontal. For more traditional weapons, there's the Cernos Prime, which shoots a horizontal spread of three arrows by default. Both can increase the number of arrows per shot even further with multishot mods, although the Artemis Bow needs to inherit them from the player's equipped non-shotgun primary weapon. | |

The Multishot and Strafe skills for the Amazon in Diablo II achieve this, in addition to her already improbable shooting rate. Both avert the obstacle posed by physics: Multishot magically splits one arrow into many after release, while a Strafing Amazon is actually loosing multiple single shots in rapid succession. |

The Ranger/Survivalist class from Etrian Odyssey has the Double Shot/Multihit ability. Upgraded to its maximum level, this ability lets go of 3 arrows at once, all of which deal noticably more damage than a regular shot, making rangers better damage dealers than any of the attack specialist classes. The ability got nerfed beyond recognition (along with a major upgrade for the typical attackers) in the second game, making it feel more like the realistic version of this trope. | |

8-Bit Theater parodies this when Ranger first nocks three arrows on the same bow, then dual-wields his bows, then dual-wields his dual-wield to make it 12 arrows loaded on four bows. He missed. Well, he was aiming at an all powerful Reality Warper wizard. Who took all those arrows, stuck them in a box, and delivered them to Ranger's wife. While the arrows were still in mid-flight. Cue Ranger's wife opening a box full of Rain of Arrows. But the implication, then, is that his tactics WOULD HAVE WORKED on a weaker target. |

Hunters in World of Warcraft learn an ability of that name which shoots three projectiles for the cost of one as far as ammunition goes, and works no matter whether you use a gun, a bow or a crossbow. This was changed for the Cataclysm expansion, allowing the ability to loose an arrow at every enemy within a certain range of your target. Releasing a few dozen arrows at once is entirely possible during some encounters. This used to cost mana, implying it involved magic. Now that hunters use "focus" as a resource, it's purely that they're Just That Good. |

The Order of the Stick: Haley has this feat, but uses it sparingly since it lowers her accuracy. The main time it comes in handy is against Sabine where, unsure of whether Sabine is a demon (weak to iron) or a devil (weak to silver), she looses one arrow of each type. It is crucial to a later Crowning Moment of Awesome. The arc villain, Tarquin, is hanging on to the side of an airship. One of Haley's arms was broken moments before, so she braces the bow with her foot to shoot two arrow at once, forcing her target to catch both of them, thus letting go of the airship. |

The Robin Hood: Men in Tights example parodies (of course) Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, where Kevin Costner's American Robin Hood shoots two at once in one scene near the end. However, the film makes a small nod to the trope. Right before nocking, Robin bites one of the arrow's feathers off to, supposedly, improve their shared accuracy. | |

The Manyshot feat from Dungeons & Dragons lets an archer do just this, though the -4 penalty for loosing two arrows at once and an additional -2 per extra arrow makes the feat's usefulness debatable. Several powers in the fourth edition allow the Seeker and Ranger to do this. Like the aptly titled "Hail of Arrows". |

Starting with Dynasty Warriors 4, archer characters Xiahou Yuan and Huang Zhong (and later Sun Shang Xiang)) shot a perfect horizontal line of arrows as part of some of their charged attacks, and in Warriors Orochi some of their special attacks border on arrow apam—Xiahou Yuan is notable in particular for releasing a left-to-right fan of five-arrow spreads in rapid succession as his special attack, understandably a spectacular crowd-clearing attack. | |

The Legend of Zelda: In Four Swords Adventures, one of the weapons available to the Links is a slingshot that shoots seeds in three directions. This weapon originated in Oracle of Seasons. This weapon is again featured in Skyward Sword. The standard slingshot can be upgraded to the Scattershot, which releases 9 seeds in a matrix formation (which seems more than slightly implausible). The bow in A Link Between Worlds can be upgraded to loose three arrows at once. Certain bows in Breath of the Wild have the ability to loose multiple arrows, anywhere from two to five, while still only consuming one from Link's stock. |

In Assassin's Creed Origins, Bayek has a bow that can shoot up to five arrows at once. While the trailer showed him taking out five enemies simultaneously at long distance, in-game it works a bit more realistically as a very short-range bow for when aiming or force is not as necessary as the ability to stick a lot of arrows in someone. | |

The Elf of Dragon's Crown has two skills that let her do this. Rapid Fire allows her to loose several arrows in quick succession, while Clone Strike allows her to loose several arrows at once. | |

Usopp of One Piece, although not an archer, does this from time to time with his slingshot. The move that comes to mind is his Triple Gunpowder Star, which, considering their explosive capabilities, is well-worth the loss in accuracy. | |

Thorgal can do this. The most triumphant example is when he's up against a crossbowman and looses two arrows simultaneously: one to deflect the crossbow bolt and the other to mortally wound the man who shot it. | |

In Ragnarok Online Archers can use the skill Double Strafe which shoots two arrows for additional damage - each of those two deals almost double damage, resulting in Quad Damage. One of their advanced classes, the Clown/Gypsy can fling tens of arrows using either the strings of their instruments or their whips, easily leading to a One-Hit Kill against average characters. |

The Tsunami bow from Terraria allows the player to loose five powerful shots parallel to one another for the cost of one arrow. The Phantasm on the other hand shoots out four arrows for the cost of one, but when any of them hit a target, it follows up with a rapid stream of phantasmal arrows at the target. Needless to say, both are end-game weapons for bow rangers. | |
