The basic longbow is a bow made from regular logs. It can be equipped at any Ranged level and can fire arrows up to iron. It has a longer range than its shortbow counterpart, but fires at a slower speed.

A longbow can be made at level 10 Fletching by using a knife on some logs to create a longbow (u), granting 10 experience, and then using a bowstring on the unstrung bow, granting another 10 experience.

Fletching a longbow from logs and bow string will profit −197 while fletching a longbow from a longbow (u) and bow string will profit −175.
