Hmm. Energy degeneration -1 and -5 energy? Definitly not for everyone, zealous or not.
MasterDinadan
Energy gain on hit outweighs the energy regen -1, provided you hit at least once every 3 seconds... something no ranger should have a problem with.
Devil's Dictionary
I keep forgetting not only primary spellcasters get +1 to energy regen on armour. I had an image of a ranger constantly losing energy in my head. I retract my above statement.

ohh, damage is +12% And I am adding to it also
I have mesmer stuff balance the negs on it.
All i know is, I used favorable winds and called shot, and dealt 95 damage to a charr ash walker in one hit. it took 2 to make him go byebye. I am happy. What once took several respawns now takes 10 mins

damage + 13%
ON TOP OF
damage +20% after customization
33% increase in innate damage. Now stack on the ranger rituals and skills, and you have a trail of death in these piney woods

Nice bow, though personally I think the energy lossage would hurt my build too much ;D

Mine's better
I recently put a Bow Grip of Fortitude on it, to replace the armor boost with +21 health.
Psykewne
I picked up a nice one last night
13-24 dmg
+12% dmg
+10% armour piercing (9% chance)
+ 6 elemental armour
and customized too it works pretty damn nicely with the preps on my ranger

Where did you find the bow? I have to get me one of those. And also where did you find the other 2 bags? Been looking everywhere for them.

I don't like the whole idea of not gaining energy as fast, though if you hit you gain energy but still.. i found this yesterday. With some enhancements it's a great bow, too.

Where do you find these cool items?

The other persons is better, yours is only +14% while enchanted
theirs is +13% all the time.

Leventh
does that say energy -5? if so how is this a nice bow?
Aksel Lindbo
I agree with Leventh. I see no reason why that is a good bow. The +13 % damage increase is fine, but it doesn't make up for the -5 energy. Besides, the damage isn't great either...

With a high expertise, that -5 energy wouldn't be too big of an issue. I agree it would be nice if it didn't have the -5 energy, but as it stands I think it is a nice midlevel bow.
Leventh
not even bro, she has mostly mesmer skills. and 20 energy is noware near enough to work with.. hell not even a druid set to make up for the -5
i wouldent touch that bow with a 20' pole.

i wouldent touch that bow with a 20' pole. I admit, I know little about mesmer skills. My toon is pretty much pure Ranger, and I know I could live with 5 less energy if I had to. Luckily I don't. I don't use the zealous bows at all, because I very rarely run out of energy. No druid set either, I went for the Desert collector armor set.

My R/Mo uses energy mainly for the healing spells, as the ranger skills and stances hardly cost any energy with high expertise. I have 25 energy and Healing Breeze, Heal Other and other spells will drain your energy within 5 seconds... Luckily, there's this skill called 'Bond Essence'. With that, you won't run out of energy... ever!
That is, if you cast it on tanks that actually tank instead of standing about and picking their nose.
But true, the -5 energy is not something I could live with, not even with a Zealous bowstring combined with Barrage.

I just figured Ranger wouldnt have as much need for energy, but what would I know. It looked like a good bow!

Aksel Lindbo
I just saw the skills she/he uses... They cover a total of 5 different attributes! I don't understand that build as it isn't specialised in anything at all.
As Leventh said, expertise doesn't help at lowering the mesmer spells so the -5 energy is a bad deal for such a build where ½ of the skills are non-ranger.

The above bow cost me approximately 500 gold and 10 minutes of grinding in Mineral Springs. Most things you find normally are inferior to collector items.
The undead Mesmer
auch nice bow but that -5 energy looks a bit crappy like getting break when your about to kill Omega-weapon in FF8

Everyone knows about the collector's items by now. In these days, everything is about looks. That's where the majority of the price comes from.
By the way, going to mineral springs is a waste. The dessicated hydra claw collector outside of destiny's gorge has the exact same. And those hydras are easier to kill than avicaras.

hay guys
req is too high, otherwise i think its a nice bow ;|

Zealous bow string is great for regaining energy. -1 energy degen is worth +1 energy on hit. why? Barrage. and with 13 in expertise it's golden.
NekoZ
Found it myself lol. Except I don't use marks so that mod is useless right now lol.
I am not really a fan of Zealous, unless it's max. Also that -5 energy..
