A '''ranged weapon''' is a [[weapon]] which requires the [[character]] wielding it to be within a certain distance of the enemy he is attacking, but does not require him to be adjacent.

There are two main categories within ranged weapons:
*Thrown weapons: [[dart]]s; [[throwing axe]]s; [[shuriken]] and [[sling]] (while technically a projectile weapon because of its need for ammunition, the sling is considered a thrown weapon in game mechanics).
*Projectile weapons: [[longbow]]; [[shortbow]]; [[longbow, composite]]; [[shortbow, composite]]; [[crossbow, light]]; and [[crossbow, heavy]]
Ranged weapons use the character's [[dexterity]] [[ability modifier|modifier]] on their attack roll. All thrown weapons (except the shuriken) are automatically [[mighty]], with no limit on the [[strength]] modifier. Projectile weapons with the the mighty property add their strength modifier to their damage up to the mighty bonus; projectile weapons without the mighty attribute still take a strength penalty to damage with a negative modifier. Projectile weapons require a supply of ammunition to be used, and thrown weapons are not recoverable after being thrown unless they are magically enchanted to do so. If a ranged weapon is used in melee, the attacker suffers a -4 penalty to the attack roll and provokes an [[attack of opportunity]]
