Type[edit]

What type of bow would Storm Bow be considered? Horn, Long, etc.--§ Eloc § 08:13, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

According to GuildWiki (which is still my source of information, most of the time :P) it's a Longbow :) - anja talk 09:34, 15 July 2007 (UTC)
Perhaps we should add this info in some way or other =) LunarEffect 22:32, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Done ~ KurdUser Kurd sig.png 23:17, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Mine is NOT a long bow, i tested it at the nameless. I won't change it anymore if you think i lie ; i don't like losing time arguing. lussh 22:16, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

I got a perfect one from a fow chest and was insc :D got screeny to Okiah 12:01, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
I just got one from a Zaishen Chest. -- Dashface User Dashface.png 11:33, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
Do they drop with inscription slot from chests any place other than the Zaishen Chest?? T1Cybernetic 19:24, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
I think FoW and UW end chests can give em, as I've gotten numerous inscribable Prophecies weapons from the FoW chest before. I hope so - I got rid of my Storm Bow and made a sexy Asuran Longbow and put max mods + 15^50 on it, but it's blue rarity - if I could get an inscribable stormbow, I would totally go back to it.

I've got one in Gate of Pain mission, q13 though.

Longbow or NOT!?!?![edit]

Some figure it out, driving me crazy these edits ~ SCobraUser-SuperCobra-Sig.png 13:23, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

User SuperCobra Strombow.jpg, nvm got a screenie ~ SCobraUser-SuperCobra-Sig.png 13:32, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
Despite the description, and despite your screenshot, storm bows are not longbows. It is an anomoly. If you doubt this... take your ranger character with a longbow, and put your stormbow on your ranger hero and see what happens in battle. Your hero with stormbow will run forward to a closer range while you are shooting at longbow range. Pucktrapper 05:25, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
Stormbow Range.jpg
I get longbow range on both of them ~ KurdUser Kurd sig.png 16:37, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
Mine are recurve bows, I can hit the Recurve target from within the circle, but if I attack the longbow target, my character steps forward a few steps. This happens on both bows. I guess you can get them in all types? Cavalier 13:36, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
I just noticed the screenshot from SCobra, so I double checked. If I select my Ascalon Recurve bow, my character takes another few steps. It has the same range as my Ironwing Longbow, so it probably is a longbow. Cavalier 13:41, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
perhaps you are all wrong and they spawn in all the various forms? i have two myself and yes equiping them does make me change range. my gold is a longbow and my blue rarity one has what i beleive is recurve range. so mayhap they come in different forms?
I am certain that mine used to say HORNBOW, now it says longbow, but testing reveals it still shoots from Horn range with horn speed (am too stupid to confirm innate armor penetration). Axlbert 10:06, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
