Anyone would have a list of the "non-conventional" bows implanted (like the -2 stance bow of the Blankets quest)?

Shame on me I have completed all the quests but my ranger was my 1st char and the newb I was used to sell all those "crappy" bows you get from quests compared to my so good 14/27 bow lol without paying attention to eventual weird bonuses.

If you have any in mind, please let me know. New weird bow = (maybe) new fancy build to go with it :P

Theres a Poison Reduced by 20% bow from a quest in the jungle. It looks like a dead bow but is a flatbow. I should have saved it for FoW farming.. Damn spiders.

I remember back when i had the Shocking Diessa Flatbow, +10 energy.. deleted it though.

There is the now defunct HoD Longbow. It had +10ar unconditionally. Add a defense grip for +15ar total. Of course, it is all but impossible to get now (I have one, but foolishly customized it).

There used to be a couple of +5 energy bows early in the game, but they have since been removed.

Was it a longbow? I just remember it firing 10,000,000 feet into the air, taking out satalites..

I wisely saved 3 of those "poison reduced by 20%" bows. And you can Mod them with a bow grip to your likeing. Use one on my trapping Ranger for the -20%. Helps in PvP as well.

It's not just you... Just FYI, in other languages that bow is not called "Long bow" but simply "Bow". And it is in fact, a composite.
Which means that for now, its most famous use is IDS farming.
