of course the closer you are, the faster your arrow will get there. i'm assuming that the chart gives the flight time at max range.

if you're right beside your target, then an arrow should hit them in the quarter second after you let it go at the most, so about every 2.25 seconds you'll do damage (but probably just a bit faster)

I'm not sure if those numbers are right. Recurve bow should have same range as a longbow, and flat bow (ascalon bow is also a flatbow) has shorter range than either recurve bow or longbow. I think someone needs to update that table.

No it isn't. Ascalon Bows can have the stats of any of the 5 bow types.

As far as I know, flight time has nothing to do with attack speed. If your attack speed is 2 and flight is 1, then your refire speed will be 2, not some crazy decimal number or anything, but the damage will be offset by 1.

True, what I said was rubbish. Just trying to see if you guys actually test numbers on that table. Don't ever take any number granted. BTW, you can save all of that space by shrinking it down to just three sentences.
