[Take a Vampire to lunch]

To be precise, a dart does 1d3 of damage, not counting your strength
bonus.  This means that to kill even a 1HD monster, you will need 3.37
hits on the average.

An arrow does 2d3 damage (1d6 in version 3).  Before version 5.3 a bow
contributes only its enchantment, so a (0,0) bow is worthless.
