If you're in a battle with another friendly party on your side you can shoot their/your archers to train your bow skill up, pickup their arrows when they fall to continue the process even long after the battle has ended.

To be fair that's kinda how you learn to shoot a bow, pick up an arrow and shoot
You aren't supposed to be able to shoot your allies to level your skill though. You can essentially level it to your current cap like this.
Hitting an ally is supposed to be an accident, not target practice.
I'm not sure whether you hit something or not matters, I think only the fact that your shooting does, I've earned points when attacking and missing
You have made a very good point on this exploit.
You can basically kill your ally's troops to level up your own skill.
Friendly fire should NOT give any experience to combat skill.
Shouldn't it though? I mean target practice is target practice right?
So what? I don't see how this is a problem. Just because they are allies doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to kill them or gain experience from shooting at them. Now, your allies should get a little pissed, but thats another story.
It's exploitable. That's the problem.
You're getting xp in an unintended way much faster than it's expected through normal gameplay.That exploit allows you to powerlevel three ranged skills and Riding by killing your allies with no consequences.
( do that while mounted and Riding will also go up considerably). THAT'S the problem.
