Can someone explain to me why wing bows are so popular? I looked at the upgrade paths and they have mediocre max, or they have a ton of crit and almost no max, or only a lot of range (at least that's what I see of it)

They were the go to bows before HLBs came out but then they came out and wing bows were pvp/evg items because of range.

Because of the max. The max is literally terrible. And no one needs crit anymore if youre decently leveld. I get like 106% crit with my highlander and my fighter isnt even maxed.

So basically wing bows are only good for pvp/evg now because it has high speed and terrible max (and because hlbs exist)?

Are you talking about ring bows or wing bows?

They USED to be popular back in the day. Not so much these days.

I would imagine they'd be nice for rafting with the fast speed and range. You might hit marginally more often since the added range means faster aiming.
Other than that I dunno.

They're outdated. HLB for non-ego, Ring Bow for ego, Wing Bow has no place IMO since you should be getting one of the other two options instead.
