I sooo wanted that bow: Marcus Bow

Unfortunately it wasn't implemented yet or any skin that even comes close ...

Urgoz Longbow might be something in that direction but well ...

Up to now:

Zodiac
Dragon Hornbow
Azure Bows
Urgoz Longbow

For me that is ...

Cheers,

My fav bows:
Urgoz
Storm
Stygian
Destroyer

Does anyone have a link to a short video of the destroyer bow in action?

I figure I'd get one for my ranger but the bow looks like a limp of poo on wiki.

If anybody is interested in buying a very good looking celestial bow at a great price, PM me for stats.

If you go back to previous pages, I uploaded my Perfect Sundering Destroyer Longbow of Fortitude.

I can't beleive nobody mentioned the celestial longbow until like the 3rd page of this string! Imo, it's one of the nicest...

My faves (of what I have) would be, in order:

Longbows: Zodiac, Celestial, Stormbow, Ivory
Recurve: Azure, Bladed
Flatbow and Hornbow: Although I like the Dragonskin Hornbow I never use it - I go with the greens as I only used them for specialized things --> Chkkr's Flatbow, Vah's Hornbow
Shortbow: Skull

I guess I'm keeping them all forever, cuz first thing I do when I get a bow I really like --> I customize it...+20% damage on top of perfect mods adds up to serious DPS

Ivory is a hornbow...
Celestials in general have a few people that really REALLY like them and most other folks don't, hence the delay in postage.
I haven't seen a norn bow in action, do the actually look and feel as small as they seem on the wiki? Because if the shot on wiki makes them appear smaller than they are, they'd be pretty nice looking.

FoxS · Nov 01, 2007, 06:03 PM // 18:03

I have most of the bows mentioned (mursaat hornbow, storm bow, etc). My favorite bow though is my naga shortbow. I like it a lot, it looks like it has snakeskin (naga?) grips.

The Sturdy Recurve Bow has a very simplistic beauty to it.

Etta · Nov 02, 2007, 11:01 AM // 11:01

Drago's Flatbow for me. Same reason as Beaver but bigger. I like 'em big.

Bigger is usually better

I've wanted a Drago's Flatbow ever since I saw Soph using one. I decided to make an exception for that one, since it's filthy sundering, but not gotten around to finding one yet.

Not one vote for the [wiki]Oaken Recurve Bow[/wiki]? If nothing else, this bow takes dye like no other bow I've seen. Try it!

Jetdoc · Nov 03, 2007, 01:01 AM // 01:01

Functional bows:

Recurve: Plagueborn, hands down.
Flatbow: Ancient...although I hate that Zehelun's (sp?) bow has the same skin.
Short: Half Moon (although I currently use the stance Hornbow for BHA)

Lykan · Nov 03, 2007, 06:15 AM // 06:15

Spiked Recurve
Eternal Bow

Lourens · Nov 03, 2007, 11:34 AM // 11:34

I like my norn longbow

T1Cybernetic · Nov 03, 2007, 08:04 PM // 20:04

The best visual one for me is the storm bow, love that lightning style animation it has, remind me to get a decent one with good mods some day

Well, I think I'm a though one on bows' skin.

I fell in love with the ranger profession in May 2007. My first bow was an Elswyth' Recurve Bow, but I don't like zealous for bows. In June, Urgoz's Longbow's price dropped very low, so I bought one for 25k. I loved that skin at first sight, but I hate it now

It's very ugly I think, not an elegant one. I used Forgotten Longbow for a while, but that's a little bit common, so I farmed a little bit and bought some good new bows, and I use them since then.
My collection:
req9 Vampiric Azure Shortbow of Fortitude (I use it rarely)
req9 Silencing Azure Recurve Bow of Fortitude (with Broad Head Arrow)
req9 Sundering Aureate Longbow of Fortitude (my fav, I dyed it black and I bought this one for only 5!!! k)
req9 Ebon Bladed Recurve Bow of Fortitude (with Ebon Dust Aura)
Rotwing Recurve Bow (I don't like the skin, but it was the cheapest method to have a good bow for Burning Arrow/Apply Poison build)
Ironwing Flatbow (I use it rarely, I don't like flatbows, but it has a nice skin)
Custo's Hornbow (but it has a bladed recurve bow skin ^^)

And now I'm going to buy a Tormented Longbow (I have 10 gemsets now) and a req9 Skull Longbow, but I don't now what mods I will put into them :/ Any ideas?

Fortunately, I don't like the Silverwing skin, so I don't have to buy it for my ranger girl
