guywho Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 ok whats the diff with long bow, short bow, and comp bow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crow Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 long bow is pretty powerfull, but way to slow short bow is less powerful, but has good speed composite bow is kinda mix between them (I think they're slightly better then long or short) (all off course if you compare long, short and composite of the same material) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Diddy Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Short bow - Short range, shoots fast (most efficient) Long bow - very long range, shoots slower Comp bow - About same speed of long bow but arrows hit a bit harder Not entirely sure about comp bow though.

aspokaspofkjsopfkapo Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 tbh longbows and comp bows stink since they are way too slow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nopheo Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 Short is used because it gives the most exp per hour but long/comp bows give the most exp per arrow. Since exp>price for most RS players short is much more popular for training. In wildy the msb is much better than longs because it hits long and constant and can KO with its 2 hit special while long just guarntees a hit.

mujammil Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 ^^ you mean shortbow, since you fire more arrows per hour you get more xp per hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceblue Posted November 1, 2007 Share Posted November 1, 2007 I believe that the composite bow on accurate has the same speed as a longbow on rapid, and the composite bow on rapid has the same speed as a short bow on accurate. It's pretty much a the best (or worst) of both worlds. A crystal bow has the same speed as a composite bow as well. "Less is more" -- Mies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
