Default A few questions

1) How do most people target enemies? For my part i press Tab(select nearest target) + space(attack), for the quickest response.

2) Is it possible to get a Celestial Flatbow?

3) Is there a common opinion of what is the "best" bow or are they used for different purposes?
- What is the most expensive bow?

1) if there is a caller pressing "t" is the fastest way
2)celestial longbows are the only celestial bows that can be obtained in pve, in pvp with the use of tournment reward points you can get the celestial bow skin for any bow
3) Bow type usually does go with usage, spike=hornbow most of the time
-I think most expensive bow is Dryad Bow,if not its Silverwing Recurve

1. C-Space, of course. Tab through for or mouse-click enemies in mobs that I know are going to be a problem. Sometimes I'll call a target and then tab through the whole mob just to know what all it contains.

2. Wouldn't know. Wiki probably will.

3. There are five different bow types. Wiki has 'em, but I guess I can post the gist of them here.

-Flatbow: Long range, high arc, fast fire.
-Longbow: Long range, medium arc, normal fire.
-Shortbow: Short range, medium arc, fast fire.
-Recurve: Medium range, small arc, normal fire.
-Hornbow: Medium range, medium arc, slow fire. 10% armor penetration.

1. c space and tab are your friends
2. in PvE, no. For PvP only characters, yes.
3. for best bow its all about what you're doing with it. this and this should have answers.
-Dryad or Silverwing.

Thanks!

Different opinions on q 1, i'll try it out..

I did only find the celestial longbow.. but i didn't know that about pvp and obtaining points. Too bad you have to be pvp only though.. i hate pvp.. but might get into it sometime.

And i should mention that i knew about the different bows ^_^ Just wondered what your opinion of the best bow was.. maybe the mods on it.

Imo that would be +15% dmg when health is above 50%\Fortitude max health bow grip\It depends on the bowstring, but i like Sundering\Flatbow.
I like the flatbow best, because the only downside with it is the arc size, and you only need either [Read the wind] or [Favorable winds] to make it better..
