Arrow Duplication Trick
1 of 5: Another way to raise your bow damage is to only use the very best arrows (meaning Daedric arrows). Fortunately, once you get one or more of any type of arrow, you can use an NPC's "infinite ammo" attribute to make more.
2 of 5: You could give one Daedric (or whatever type) of arrow to a follower, then look around after combat and pick up all the arrows they fired that missed their targets. However, there is a better way.
3 of 5: Find an NPC who practices archery by firing arrows at a target over and over, and "give" him some superior arrows. (Note that one such person resides in the Thieves Guild's cistern area.)
4 of 5: Wait if necessary for the NPC to stop practicing, then pickpocket him. Take all of his arrows, then give him one of your superior arrows.
5 of 5: After that, wait for him to start practicing again. He'll be using your arrow, and you can pick up all of the ones he shoots into the target.
