Sling bullets are missiles that are used in conjunction with standard sling-type missile weapons — such as sling, sling of accuracy, sling of the long shot or Whirlwind.

Lead sling bullets are roughly comparable to rocks, and higher metal ones are obviously better. The latter are rare, however, and not really milkable.

In 1.2.x and later, sling bullets can be of slaying types; these are covered in Sling bullet of *foo* slaying topic.

Desirability

Sling bullets are rather rare and prone to destruction, making them poor choice for common usage.

Guaranteed/Common Sources

Sling bullets can be obtained in the same manner as all generic loot. They can not be created through the Fletchery skill.

Keethrax shoots lead sling bullets, which can be retrieved for PC usage.
