Bow attack
From Guild Wars Wiki
(Redirected from Bow Attack)
Bow Attacks are attacks performed with bows. Bow attack can refer to either a normal attack made with a bow or a specific type of attack skill performed with bows. Bow attacks have the same damage type and flight characteristics as the bow used to perform them.
Many skills will refer to "bow attacks" or "arrows". These skills will affect both normal bow attacks and bow attack skills. Bow attacks are not considered spells and as such picking up a bundle item will disable them.
All Bow Attack skills have a chance of not activating when standing on a bridge or stairway and on some inclines or overpasses.
