Magic bow / arrows?

[Donruss]

I shot my raincaller at a willow wisp just to pull it... it landed! 14 dmg. This was a suprise to me because I have been fletching non-magic arrows.

Does just the bow or just the arrow have to be magic to hit magic creatures? Not both?

I haven't tested, so I don't know if magic arrows will hit with a non-magic bow. But yeah, magic arrows are pretty pointless, as is the Trueshot Longbow (except as a step in the Raincaller quest.) Can't even remember if that is the classic mechanic, but tbh it feels pretty classic, lotta shortcuts in that classic code.

I shot at a mummy yesterday. Despite the mummy being invulnerable to kicks with my non-magic boots, my non-magic bow and my non-magic arrows did damage to it.

Not sure what this means. Maybe normal bow and arrows hit hit-by-magic-only mobs. Or maybe I've misunderstood the invulnerable-to-my-kicks thing.

only one or the other needs to be magic. Magic Bow + normal arrows = hit and vice versa. (I think)

In classic you required magic arrows to hit magic creatures, the bow didn't matter since the bow wasn't hitting anything.

Here neither needs to be magic, longbow + arrow will hit magic creatures.

Well, that's one needed "error" in our favor, albeit one of limited value.
