    I don't have the game installed right now so I can't check, but if I remember right you can set all the hotkeys in the setup/config program outside the game. If there's one for changing the arrow type I don't really know.

    That's the game's pre-release FAQ and not everything mentioned there has made it into the final version. Did you look at the game's setup/config program like I suggested?

    [​IMG] There is no hotkey assignment for different arrow types. You will have to use the mouse, at least you don't have to go through the inventory page to do it all the time ;)

    You'll also notice a few other things mentioned in the FAQ are not implemented into the final version of the game. Pre-release comments on features should generally be taken with a pinch of salt.
