CC Bow was commonly known as shortbow but today I was checking my storage and noticed this:



I went to test and CC Bow now has longbow range but (I think) slower refire rate with faster arrow.. I dont know if this is new info, but anyone else noticed this change? Since when?

Yes. And that's a good thing Wilkon. That's why everybody is so happy, because longbows (or flatbows depending on preference) is the best pulling bow out there.

Another question: since when Dead Bows are recurve bows?

I thought they were longbows? hmm.. Or maybe am I wrong?
