June 11, 200719 yr A new bow has made its way to RuneScape from the shadowy dimension of the dark beasts. These dark bows are strange and dangerous weapons, designed to shoot two arrows at a time, even with the most powerful arrows. Its mysterious special attack deals massive damage, which is even more powerful if you use it with dragon arrows. Dark bows can only be obtained from the dark beasts that lurk along the path to the Light Temple. Although it requires a level 90 Slayer to take on a dark beast, level 60 rangers can use these tradeable dark bows. The dark bow is also the only bow that can fire dragon arrows! You also now have access to a new cavern where eight more dark beasts lurk, just at the start of the Light Temple path. Summary Requirements to use the dark bow Level 60 Ranged Requirements to kill dark beasts Started Mourning's Ends Part II Level 90 Slayer In other news... H.A.M. clothing has been added to the items players can store in the armour case in their costume room. Players can now deposit their selection of H.A.M. clothes to free up some bank space. Players can now see when they have achieved the maximum Kudos from helping out at the Varrock Museum. The Fountain of Heroes in the Heroes' Guild will no longer recharge amulets of glory in their noted form. Players can now move compost into all empty buckets in their inventory if they have sufficient compost in the bin. This is to allow players to more easily extract the compost for their Farming needs. Players who've achieved a high enough magic level to cast Ice Barrage from the Ancient Magick Spellbook will be interested to know that we've fixed the requirements for casting to allow for combination runes. All other Ancient Magick spells already allow players to use combination runes, but it seems this one was missed off. Players who are short on inventory or bank space can now drop wound up toy mice on free worlds. Prior to this, players could only drop the unwound version.
June 11, 200719 yr HOLY HELL !!!!! this thing IS AWESOME.(from the description) Makes me love range even more! now its gonna go for like 50,+ though =\.
June 11, 200719 yr Killing Dark Beasts as we speak :ohnoes: Wish me luck! 99 Slayer since August 2007.
June 11, 200719 yr Dark bow Descent of Darkness Inflicts up to 30% more damage. Descent of Dragons When using dragon arrows, inflicts up to 50% more damage. Both attacks will always hit. I guess i got 99 ranged for a reason lol Hey Nicrune007 , Whats Your Username? 99 Ranged on 2/6/07 99 Hit Points on 9/5/08 99 Defense on 26/4/08 99 Attack on 14/2/09 99 Strength on 25/2/09 99 Slayer on 13/9/09\:D/
June 11, 200719 yr With any type of arrow the special makes it hit 30% harder and it will not miss. With dragon arrows the special hits 50% harder and it will not miss. +95 range bonus, which may I add, is +5 off from the Crystal bow and doesnt degrade. I think im in love.

June 11, 200719 yr Do not buy any over 300k. I repeat, the dark bow is NO rare drop. Not like the abysal whip. So prices will drop down HARD! Wait 1 day and they will have enough to bring down prices below half a mill.

June 11, 200719 yr its actually not the biggest thing since sliced bread, it fires at around the same speed as a crossbow i hear. :-k still, it hits twice, which makes is the same as a shortbow. : but remember, the special dosn't MAKE it hit 30-50% harder, it gives it a CHANCE too. otherwise that'd be wayy to strong. :shame: PMG OMIGODZAWZ RANGE CAN KO NOW?!?!1ONESHIFT? :XD: crystal bow, with prayer and potion max hit at 99 range was 28. nudist hippy vegan elves who inexplicably wear leather.
June 11, 200719 yr spec doesnt miss? wasnt this like the original whip spec? i expect it to be nerfed.
June 11, 200719 yr Looks like those dark bows are common drop as they already sell them for 300k at the official forums. Retired from RuneScape for as long as possible.
June 11, 200719 yr Do not buy any over 300k. I repeat, the dark bow is NO rare drop. Not like the abysal whip. So prices will drop down HARD! Wait 1 day and they will have enough to bring down prices below half a mill. The guy on the RSOF selling at 300k is a fake, look at his stats. Plus the whip wasnt exactly a rare drop when people were first getting to 85. there are no stupid questions just way too many inquisitive idiots balance is scary to people who like things easy for them
June 11, 200719 yr A SUGGESTION TO ALL 90+ SLAYERS! I would sell your Dark Bow now as the fever settles in, this thing looks big and clumsy so may drop down in price rapidly *cough* d2h *cough*.
