Making a bow in Minecraft is only half the battle when it comes to fighting enemies at long distances, as you have to possess a solid stockpile of arrows for the bow to shoot. The crafting process of arrows is similar to that of the bow but requires a couple of additional resources that you might not know where to find. You can see the entire crafting process for arrows in Minecraft in the guide below.

Making Arrows in Minecraft

A simple arrow requires three total resources, two of which are easily available at the start of Minecraft. The other resource isn't difficult to acquire by any means, but you won't be able to add it to your inventory immediately. The full arrow crafting recipe is viewable below:

• At a crafting table, place a single piece of Charcoal in the top middle box.
• Then, place a single Stick in the middle box and a Feather in the bottom middle box.

With that recipe, you can make four arrows (1:4 ratio). So if you wanted to make 100 arrows, for example, you would need 20 Charcoal, Sticks, and Feathers each.
