Throwing weapons are equipped in the Ranged or Ammo slot, depending on the item. For the most part, if it's stackable it will go in the Ammo slot, otherwise it will go into Ranged.
- Some throwing items, such as boomerangs and chakrams, return when thrown. Others are one-use items, and once thrown are gone.
- There are a good number of throwing items that people do not throw. They have nice stats and are equipped for those stats only - not to throw. Most of these nice-stat items are one use items; if thrown on accident, they are gone until the player gets a new one. However, if such an item is coupled with the Ranger's Unlimited Shot, the item can be thrown without losing it.
- In a game update, many items were corrected so they cannot be accidentally thrown at all.
