There was a link floating around that had a chart that compared all of the bow (and melee weapons too, i believe) that I just can't find again .

Would anyone happen to know what the mess I'm talking about, and actually have this link?

Thanks,
Saba

Ascalon Bows arent on those lists I know they have the same stats as some other type of bow, I was told they are like long bows. Is this correct?

Each ascalon bow is different it seems. some have similarities to longbows, flatbows, shortbows. Some folks have done some research on this but Im not sure where it is.

I picked up the Asclon bow from a collector outside Augry Rock for 5 Topaz Crests but I cant really tell what it is...anyone have any ideas?

Perfect max damage and max +15% damage when above 50% HP, no prefix or suffix! (add your own) Amazing bow.

I *think* that it fires faster than the composite bow I used to use.

I just grabbed that bow after reading your post SMO, and I tested it a bit. All I can say for sure is what kind of bow it is not: it isn't a shortbow, halfmoon, longbow, or flatbow. It has an incredibly low-angle flight path - the arrows streak nearly directly to the target. It fires slow, and doesn't have the best range.
