They are considered improvised when you do this, however, which might be relevant for the purposes of, say, the Tavern Brawler Feat.No, it is a quality of the Ammunition property.I am not. I am making the case that they are in the ranged category because they are under the ranged weapons heading in the table. This is in contrast to javelins, which are under the melee weapons heading in the table. Javelins are not considered improvised and use their normal damage die when used to make a melee weapon attack. They also add Strength to hit and damage of both ranged and melee weapon attacks made with them, since they are melee weapons and lack the Finesse property.</blockquote>
