I want to buy a new bow, but with different skins come different names. This makes it difficult to shop. For example the Eternal, Shadow, or Zodiac Skin. There should be a way to know what bow type they are- Longbow, Flatbow, Horn Bow, Recurve Bow, or Shortbow. Anyway to find out? Maybe if you have a bow you could share with everyone what type you think it is. I'll start. I have a Shadow Bow and my guess is it's a Recurve Type. Let's use this forum thread to help each other .

You can try them out on the Isle of the Nameless, to test out distance and attack speed. I doubt eternal,shadow,zodiac are short bows, maybe flat or long similarities.

Maybe try to match your bow with the chart.

You should check the Wiki on different types of bows and what they do... and good grief, stop typing like that. Makes me get a headache trying to read that.
