The Dark Bow

Featured Replies

If someone walked up to you and said dark bow, what would come to your mind? Are you a fan or do you hate it? It specials are incredible and are not to be underestimated. Now with the fall of pvp protect item, not as many people will be dark bowing in my opinion. What do you think is the fate of the mighty dark bow?

I've never had one so I wouldn't know. :thumbsup:

 

 

 

But I think it'll stay where it is. :mrgreen:

I'd think about my dry streak with dark beasts atm.

 

 

 

But they are a very nice weapon for specials and especially useful at TD's if you duo.

they were used in pvp quite alot but thats probably gonna change so i think they'll drop in price as thier useless for tranning.

Gamertag: EFs Predator.

Games I play: Halo 3, Halo wars.

a very large population of this game can afford to lose a few darkbows or whips. You will see them all the time on the battlefield.

I think of pjers

Goals:

94 magic

94 ranged

55 slayer

Addy gloves-done

I think of the days when I got 90 slayer and camped at dark beasts for 1 week and got 14 of them. Sold all for 3.7M each totaling in almost 52M gp in one week. I used all of the cash towards 99 Prayer (Which I got a few days after.)

This. Only one dark bow drop from 90 - 94 slayer.

A crappy ranged weapon

 

^ This.

I love to meet people; send me a pm if you see me on RuneScape! :)

I think how it is useless to pay 1 mill for something that can't be used to FM with.

Retired Dec 2009

I piety the fool.

What do you mean by "the fall of pvp protect item"??

 

 

 

But anyways, I'd think of all those low life void pjers with a dark bow just waiting for you to kill someone and immediately kill you :x

Rune crossbow+Diamond e/Dragonstone e would be better than Darkbow+Dragon arrows if you ask me.

13 Dbows 90-99 slay comes to mind...

Is it really useless for training? How much slower would it be than a shortbow? Would its high range attack bonus and guarantee hit spec make it useful for monsters with high ranged defense, like waterfiends or skeletal wyverns?

gosh, would you kill waterfiends or skeletal wyverns with a BOW?

 

I mean, you will atleast need an anti-fire shield for wyverns right...? And some melee armour for waterfiends? :shock:

Never a serious money maker lol.

 

Currently a Sabre Initiate =]

it's actually a pretty useful ko weapon even without the special. if you use the msb for your quick attack and switch to the d bow, its basically like a free msb spec. i've gotten plenty of ko's with non spec 24-25 hits from a dbow.
