Members can make an elder shieldbow through the Fletching skill at level 95. First, a player must cut an unstrung elder shieldbow (u) from elder logs, granting 116.4 Fletching experience. Then, the player must string the unstrung elder shieldbow with a bowstring, granting an additional 116.4 experience. Like all shieldbows and unlike most other weapons, it incorporates an inseparable shield, providing armour and life point bonuses. This also counts as a shield for Defence abilities, such as Rejuvenate. The attack range of the elder shieldbow is 8 spaces.
