How to equip special arrows?
Hey guys.
Probably a simple question and Im just missing something but how in hell you can equip special arrows? On the consumable screen I have only the GIVE and DISCARD option active all the time (Im playing magic archer) and no matter what I try it just sits in my characters inventory untouched. As far as I know magic archer should be able to use any arrow as other ranged vocations. What I tried so far:

-equipment screen (arrows not accessible from there)
-consumables screen (while standing still, attacking - USE option not available)
-tried to hotkey them on the keyboard (not allowed for some reason)
-gave it to the main pawn and tried to equip it by giving it back to the main char
-bow mode while using mouse and keyboard

Nothing worked so far. Its just kind of irritating to have a 100 arrows in my inv and I cant use them. I read tons of guides and googled the problem but nowhere could find a solution. People just saying select and equip it. Well ♥♥♥♥ :D

I played this game on PS3 a lot with a warrior/mage build and bought it on PC on the first day of pre-order. I really enjoy the ranged char, especially the homing arrows and the flares during nighttime.

Hope somebody can show me the right direction.

Nah, magick archer can't use special arrows. Cause you're shooting magic energy instead of actual arrows.

Wow, that was quick. Good to know, many online guides referring to special arrows as something all ranged vocations can use. Thanks a lot.
Lets get back to work, I have hundreds of arrows to sell :D

Just save the arrows in storage, in case you wish to switch to Strider/Assassin/Ranger later in the game.

It's not like you ever need to sell excess arrows ever to get more gold.

How do you have your pawn use them? Wiki saying they can but I can't seem to figure it out.
O and Pawn is a Strider.

I'm not sure but I think if you put them into a strider's inventory they'll use them as they see fit.
Could be wrong though, I NEVER give pawns items they can use, as it can screw up battles!

@Xanatos Thank you. I read somwhere else that that have to see you use them afew times to start using them. And most time only use on boss fights. Im a Fire mage so was hoping to get pawn using oil arrows.
