Celestial Longbows - Guild Wars Forums

These 2 Celestial bows will do the same damage, but will the prices be very different (same requirement)?

Celestial Longbow (with an inscription slot)
Armor penetration +20% (Chance 20%) - sundering bowstring
Health +30 - grip of fortitude
Inscription: Strength and Honour!
Damage +15% (while Health is above 50%)

Celestial Longbow (without an inscription slot)
Armor penetration +20% (Chance 20%) - sundering bowstring
Health +30 - grip of fortitude
Damage +15% (while Health is above 50%) - no inscription, comes with the bow itself

Is it possible for a Celestial bow to have all 3 slots (string, grip & inscription) PLUS that damage +15% which is on the bow itself?

Thanks in adv.

no because
1) the inscription can't be used on the 2??.
2) the 15^50 on the 2?? is a "perma" inscription that can't be change or remove

the price...i think that the iscriptable one has a bit more value.

inscribable is abit more flexible, hence costs more
in terms of normal useage 15^50 is pretty much the best, so i dont see why ud want to change it, and therefor why u shouldnt just get the cheaper one, if your buying

The bow w/ an inscription slot is the one I "bought" 2 days ago, but I haven't received it/paid for it. Will receive/pay for it as soon as the current owner logs in.

I was just wondering if it's possible for a bow to have 3 slots plus something that comes with the bow itself, but no, & that's a good news for me

Thanks for the answers.

Any bow designated as a "hornbow" has an inherent 10% sundering outside of a bowstring. It is the only bow that has an unseen mod.
