* Once a bow has unlimited ammunition training, it can never again fire any ammunition type other than the one in which it's trained. This means you cannot use slotted ammunition. | * Once a bow has unlimited ammunition training, it can never again fire any ammunition type other than the one in which it's trained.

** Since [[Elemental]] Enchantments are added to the ammunition itself, they cannot be used with an unlimited ammunition trained bow since the bow can no longer use slotted ammunition. For the very same reason, Alchemical enchancements (silver and titanium) also do not work. | ** Since [[Elemental]] Enchantments are added to the ammunition itself, they cannot be used with an unlimited ammunition trained bow since the bow can no longer use slotted ammunition.

* You cannot add compound bow parts (cams) to a trained bow without losing the training. Since cams (to create compound bows/slings) are part of the crafting process, a new item (bow or sling) is created and the previous item is destroyed (in the crafting process). As such, any ammunition training is also lost. However, after a regular bow is crafted into a compound bow, you can then train ammuniton for the compound bow. | * You cannot add compound bow parts (cams) to a trained bow without losing the training.

** For example, you might train one longbow with five hundred (500) iron-tipped stirge-fletched mahogany shafts, two thousand (2000) platinum-tipped owl-fletched hickory shafts, and three thousand (3000) adamantium-tipped falcon-fletched mahogany shafts. The bow's description would list all three ammunition trainings. | ** For example, you might train one longbow with five hundred (500) iron-tipped stirge-fletched mahogany shafts, two thousand (2000) platinum-tipped owl-fletched hickory shafts, and three thousand (3000) adamantium-tipped falcon-fletched mahogany shafts.

** If you train ten thousand (10,000) platinum-tipped owl-fletched hickory shafts with that same longbow, the other training you did for the bow becomes obsolete and you can no longer train any other arrow for the bow. It will only shoot platinum-tipped owl-fletched hickory shafts from then onward. | ** If you train ten thousand (10,000) platinum-tipped owl-fletched hickory shafts with that same longbow, the other training you did for the bow becomes obsolete and you can no longer train any other arrow for the bow.
