Straight outta The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, know that your various bows and arrow amounts (different bows have different ammo pools, in case you haven't noticed) can be set alight.

Done by dipping your arrow into any fire source - be it a blazing field inferno, a dropped torch, brazier dangling inside a cavern etc. - you need only point your view 'into' the flame whilst holding L2/LT to catch the arrowhead aflame, then let loose on an unsuspecting foe.

Best used to ignite those pools of oil surrounding the various ceramic pots guards seem to adorn their hideouts with, getting a fire going can often split enemies apart and set them up for stealth kills and headshots.
