Been doing new tombs runs in barrager teams for fun and because i want to get this bow. I like the stats but i can't find a picture of one anywhere!

Does anyone know what skin it has? i know the recurve one is a shadow bow skin, But if anyone could tell me or even supply a piccie i would be most greatful!

It's the same skin as Elswyth's Recruve bow.

Isn't it a shadow bow skin?

Indeed it is... Shadow Bow skin with Longbow stats as in firing rate and range and type of arc.

All the greens in tombs (with the exception of the Ogre-Slaying Knife) have shadow skins.

I think this is kind of cool for making the Longbow a very unique item in terms of skin. Typically all "shadow" bows are horn bow types. If you get a long bow in FoW it will not be a shadow skin (I believe), so this is the only item whose skin actually has a meaning but is not that type of item just based on skin, although recurve probably also fits in this category.
