eggzs Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 I want to know which bow is better, longbows cost more so people think they are better, but this topic will decide which is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXru1n3dXx Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 It dosn't really even need discussion, every body knows shortbows are better due to the speed. If you wanna prove this wrong, dm someone with a shortbow vs your longbow. RS Stats | BF2 Stats | ARSCV | LastFM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wanna prove this wrong, dm someone with a shortbow vs your longbow. That pretty much covers it. This is how much you all raised for charity. Thank you.

Iantiger Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Shortbows are far superior, even with the update a while ago that increased the energy required for a shortbow special attack.

stormveritas Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 Throw another vote on the shortbow fire. I didn't notice much, if any, of a power drop-off. The speed of shortbows is fantastic (especially on rapid). Don't know anyone that's tried both and prefers longbows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bestsob Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 a shortbow would be better, due to speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green_Screen Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 There are only 2 places i would use a longbow, the wild, i would have shortbow as a main weapon but incase the mage gets out of shortbow range i would switch to that and the other is the ranging minigame with the targets, since speed of your bow doesn't matter it doesn't make sense to have a faster weapon with a lower range bonus, but overall, stick to the shortbow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doomster Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 The longbow is a sniper's weapon, used from cover against a target only just in range, or against a fleeing target. Also useful for "collecting" a target. Against anything that either cannot hit you, or is already well within range, the shortbow is faster - forget the "longrange" style unless you really want to train defence.
