Title: Bow question
Post by: Warriorstack on May 25, 2010, 11:45:31 am
I just PLed my ranger to 70 I am working on his pages for his epics atm.  It will be about a week or so before I get him his 3.0 anyone know if a decent bow drops in Time?  Or do I need to go to Qvic to get one?

It is called bow of tempest delay is 36 attack 43 with 15 attack bonus and 30 ac plus a skill mod archery 5%. i used it untill my 3.0 the bows i saw in time did not come close to the damage/delay of this which is why i chose to use it :P

I answered the question... he ask for a bow in time :)
I could have told him to get the Oak Longbow from Noobie Vendor too... or get the Bow of Flame in Dulak... :)

Heh thanks for the answer.  So I have concluded from reading the posts the the BoT one is better then the time one?  What about Ldon and other places?  Sorry for the random newbness :)

Best Time bow I've seen is this: http://mqemulator.net/item.php?id=69054 . Pretty sure that's better than anything from BoT. Plaguebreeze from Chaos in LDoN 6 is even better: http://mqemulator.net/item.php?id=47325

Another bow related question:

When can you start turning epic blades into bows?  (1.5, 2.0, etc?)  How do you do so, just hand the epic quest npc your sword?


Title: Re: Bow question

Only one that turns into a bow is the 3.0.  Had him back the sword he gives you for the bow.

The one from BoT is Bow of the Tempest.  43/36 with (stats) and Archery +5% .  It drops from named in the BoT tower - you need to do the key quest to get in there (or get a CoH..)

It would be nice (hint hint) to have epic 1.5-2.5 bows also, since the bow drops seem pretty rare, and you'll be doing 3 epics eventually anyway.  Seems like it would be pretty easy to make - take the 3.0 bow, cut the stats in half - bam 2.5 epic bow...  ;D

Any idea in which wing the Bow of the Tempest drops in BoT?

Been killing everything that moves there for a few days and haven't seen it yet.

Also...do bows drop at all in Sol Ro's Tower?

No D: cause the planes are used for custom stuff... I wanted to make them for my rangers too.  I know better drop but they're nostalgic imo and I wanted them even if I'd never use em~

You can fletch some bows but the stats of the ones you could make suck.
I use the ldon bow because of the range. With the arrows you can buy in PoKnowledge I have a pull distance of 365.
As a range tho just find the highest dmg bow you can get for now.

Too bad  :-[

I was looking forward to using the Featherwood again.

Does the Bow of the Destroyer drop from Dagarn in NToV? Or is that zone/mob custom too?


Title: Re: Bow question
Post by: Balthor2 on July 23, 2010, 01:21:33 am
If you ever find Ntov up it can drop.
Someone likes to perma camp tov, kael named even tho I know they no longer need the items.

Dagarn is up often, I was killing him a couple times a day til I got my Ranger the bow, all the other dragons were down whenever I went in though.  Gotta love the machine gun~

I found a full pop, except Vulak, when I first went there, but I wasn't strong enough to kill Dagarn(?) the first one in west TOV... it was close but adds killed me...   Then later on I went back and the place was empty except for Lend. the Keeper in east.  Who died like a bitch.  8)

Got Longbow of the Stormcaller to drop several times off fire elementals in Tower of Solusek Ro.  Decent upgrade from the Dulak bows at least.

After like a million hours of camping Chaos I finally got Plaguebreeze (and some other bow not nearly as good)...  Yeah I'll get my 3.0 one of these years..

After 200-300 Qvic bosses I got:

Normally I'd be depressed since Qvic usually means almost 3.0, but my rangers are just filler at the moment so this is a huge upgrade.
