Version 0.12: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.
The Throwing skill denotes how accurate and powerful your character is with thrown weapons and blowguns. It crosstrains with the Slings skill. Note than unlike most weapon skills, improving your Throwing skill does not increase the speed of your attacks, except when attacking with a blowgun; only Haste and Finesse can allow you to throw faster.
The Throwing skill can also substitute for other weapon skills for the purpose of identifying throwable weapons in your inventory.
The following weapons use the Throwing skill:
