Question about: Barbed Bladed Recurve Bow of Enchanting

Hello people, today I found my first ever GOLDEN weapon! It is:

Barbed Bladed Recurve Bow of Enchanting
Piercing Damage: 14-27 (requires 12 Marksmanship)
Lenghtens Bleeding duration on foes by 33% (stacking)
Enchantments last 19% longer
Inscription: "Dance With Death"
Damage +15% (while in stance)

Now I am asking you... is this thing worth a lot? To me it looks very good but I'm also a noob in this game. And I heard people talking about how only "perfect" weapons are really wanted, well I don't know if this one is perfect or not! Also, they say stuff like 15^50 what does that mean?

Not max damage, high req, merchant food or give it to a hero. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Hopefully I won't disappoint you but no

“Perfect” is key ingredient for high priced items

Barbed Bladed Recurve Bow of Enchanting
Piercing Damage: 14-27 (requires 12 Marksmanship) (Not max dmg and the REQ is not 9 although it makes no difference on performance the lower req for max dmg the better)

Lenghtens Bleeding duration on foes by 33% (stacking) (ok mod but vampiric or zealous is more desirable)
Enchantments last 19% longer (not max but still good IMO)
Inscription: "Dance With Death" (best mod currently 15% DMG/health is above 50%)
Damage +15% (while in stance)

Sorry to say, no, it's not worth a great deal as a bow, but some of the parts may be saleable.
- Bladed Recurve Bows are not rare - though they may be "un-common"
- Max damage for a bow is 15-28 - yours is less than max damage (people don't want to buy less than max weapons.)
- As long as you have at least 12 in marksmanship, the req isn't a problem, but people mostly want to buy as low a req as possible - usually 9 (sometimes req10 - req8 is very rare.)
- Barbed (lengthens bleeding) strings are less desirable than some others, but may still be worth around 800g or so.
- 20% would be max for "of Enchanting" grips. 19% is ok to use, but wouldn't sell well.
- the Dance with Death Inscription is desired by some people (Stance tanks for example) and could be worth a platinum or 2.

15^50 is shorthand for "+15% damage while health is above 50%" - either built into a non-inscribable weapon or as a "Strength and Honor" inscription.
