Bow Ego

• Spicyapple wrote on 2010-09-26 16:41
  I'm pretty sure there is a thread answering this but i could not find it so i made a new one.
  Currently i have a llb ego and now that this event has made wing bows cheaper was wondering if i should make a wing bow ego. Basically my question is should i keep my llb ego or make a new bow ego?

  Wing bow ego is awesome, but it requires nx repairs. so do it only if you want to nx repair it.

  The Wing Bow ego out classes the LLB ego at end game. Though it has less max damage by 4, I think, the Wing Bow ego can shoot further than the game can normally render in Uladh. Along with that, it has hefty critical which is a must for ranged users. I'd say go for it. The only issues is that the repairs will come at 50 cents a pop and that early game, it has less than amazing damage.

  Are you a Human or an Elf? I would say that it's a significant factor.
  
  All things considered, the Wing Bow and the Ring Bow are the best spirit ranged weapons. Humans can opt for the Crossbow, which likely sports higher ADACT than the Leather Long Bow although the defacto choice will remain the Leather Long Bow.
  
  Weapon Damage Avg Crit Speed ADACT
  LLongBow 69-112 103 44% Slow 147
  Crossbow 58-101 92 54% Normal 146
  Ring Bow 72-129 117 34% Normal 151
  Wing Bow 55-109 98 50% Fast 148
  
  The Wing/Ring bow are two hit weapons, which explains why both weapons have greater stun duration than their similar speed counterparts.
  
  The Wing Bow is faster, which is useful when spamming Arrow Revolver. It has Goliath range and excellent critical as well. Those features appeal to Elves who want the aim speed at close range and the critical to fuel their Magnum Shot.
  
  The Ring Bow is slower but has exceptional stun duration, which elves should enjoy. The range is still excellent and the critical is average. The most important aspect is the massive damage bonus, which should significantly boost the strength of players who choose to maximize Crash Shot.
  
  Of course both weapons are expensive/rare and both weapons also require massive dedication to train. After all, a Crossbow ego w/40 strength beats the Ring Bow in both damage and critical.

  Don't forget, Ring Bow and Wing Bow can knockback a target in the second shot. That factor alone makes it better than the other bows already. Let alone the longer range and critical rate of Wing Bow.
  
  The difference in max damage between those bows at max levels is something that most people won't notice.
  
  Get one now while they are mad cheap even if you don't ego it.

  Due to the mystery boxes red wing bows have became extremely common. They've dropped from 5~7m to 2~3m on Mari.

  Ring isn't even hard to get.
  
  You can farm then while ballooning easily.
  
  
  If you were referring to the coloured ones from the boxes, I think it's pretty dependent on the seller.

  Oh sorry I'm a human.

  Ring Bow isn't hard at all to get. In fact, it's so easily obtainable, it's dropped to around 70-100k in Alexina. Easy dmg bow to obtain.
  
  If you're a Human and planning to use Ranged, a Wing Bow ego is currently the best extension for Human Ranged.
