Tyranny of Dragons spans two supplements:
- Hoard of the Dragon Queen
- Rise of Tiamat
If an archer was expected to buy all of their arrows up front, what is a reasonable estimate of how many arrows they would need throughout the coarse of a full Tyranny of Dragons campaign?
Assume that we are not using the 50% arrow recovery rule and are instead using 0% arrow recovery.

Very, very approximately: 3,000 $pm $ 1,000
This would cost 150gp and weigh 150 lb.
Assuming:
- the PCs start at level 1 and finish with just enough XP to get to level 16
- the number of encounters per level is as per my answer to Why does the experience-to-next-level not change between some levels?
- The archer uses their bow for 4 rounds in each combat
- The archer always uses the bow even though there are encounters in the adventure where ranged attacks will be at disadvantage because the player will be in melee due to constrained battlefields
- The archer gets Extra Attack as a fighter
- All arrows are lost
Then:
Now, the 357 encounters is possibly on the high side but if you do all the side-quests and have a lot of random encounters, I can see you getting there.

Well, you can probably figure a normal fight runs five to seven turns, and a big fight or boss battle might run twice that long. So multiply by the number of fights in the modules and the number of shots per turn, and you should be able to approximate it from there.
But there isn't a fixed number of fights in those modules. It depends on how your skills roll out, how long you take, what you choose to do, and a lot of other things. I don't think it's possible to even vaguely approximate how many combat-rounds there might be across both modules.
