Acid arrows, +1 in Enhanced Editions, are magical flight arrowsammunition for bows. They are available in the whole Baldur's Gate series.

This arrow is coated in acid. When it strikes an enemy, it not only pierces flesh but also eats it away, enlarging and deepening the wound.

— Acid Arrow +1

Gameplay[]

Compared with an ordinary arrow, the magical acid variant inflicts +1 missile damage.

Any successful arrow strike also exposes the target to additional acid damage. 2d6 in BG I and 1d3 in BG II.

Magic resistance can block the acid damage.

The arrows are magical, and thus can strike a creature that requires either "magical" or +1 enchantment weapons to hit it.

See below for an overview which creatures can be hit.

They are sold for a basic price of 50gp on the Sword Coast but are worth only 20gp in Amn and Tethyr.
