The Willow shieldbow is a shieldbow stronger than the oak shieldbow which can use arrows up to and including steel. The willow shieldbow requires a Ranged level of 20 or higher to wield. Players can purchase this bow from Lowe's Archery Emporium in Varrock.

Members can make a willow shieldbowbow using the Fletching skill at level 40. First, a player must cut an unstrung willow shieldbow from willow logs, which grants 41.5 Fletching experience. Then, the player must string the unstrung willow shieldbow with a bow string, which grants 41.5 experience.

However, players tend to not string these bows for fletching experience as the cost of the bow strings (Lua error in Module:Exchange at line 74: package.lua:80: module 'Module:Exchange/Bow string' not found. coins) are significantly higher than the cost of the Willow logs (248 coins). Many players will use high level alchemy or get rid of the unstrung bows in other ways.

Like all shieldbows and unlike most other weapons, it incorporates a shield inseparably despite nothing that remotely resembles a shield is involved in its creation. Therefore, it provides armour and life point bonuses, and counts as a shield for Defence abilities, such as Rejuvenate. The attack range of the willow shieldbow is 8 spaces.

Trivia

This bow was originally a members only item. This has been changed by Jagex when they believed that the free to play rangers were not as strong as the other two combat classes.
