Broad arrows can be purchased from any Slayer Master. They are the only arrows that can be used to slay Turoths and Kurasks. They require 55 Slayer and 50 Ranged to fire. They require at least a standard magic bow to fire, and are equivalent in damage to god arrows.

After the Smoking Kills quest, players can spend 300 Slayer points to learn how to fletch broad arrows. This requires 52 Fletching. Players lacking these levels can purchase up to 3,000 at a time for 90 coins each, from the Slayer equipment shop, or spend 35 Slayer points to buy 250 broad arrows.

Making broad arrows

Broad arrowheads (found from Kurask drops or Slayer masters) are attached to regular headless arrows to make broad arrows. Making broad arrows yields 15 Fletching experience per arrow, or 225 experience per set of 15. One can make up to 45,000 broad arrows per hour (making 150 broad arrows per 12 seconds) which is equal to 675,000 experience.

For Ironmen using maple logs (from Managing Miscellania), each broad arrow made from scratch yields a total of 16.42 experience.
