magic comp vs short

[zuomimiez]

Magic comp bow: (pics can be found from clues-> new clue item pics sticky)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

+72 range att

 

 

 

took me 2:02 to fire 50 arrows (rapid, no1 uses accurate -.- )

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Magic short:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

+69 range att

 

 

 

took me 1:30 to fire 50 arrows (rapid)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Longbow:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

+69 range att

 

 

 

rapidfire 2:28 (~2:30)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So magic comp is about 75% of shorts speed (lets assume that my recording wasn't perfect) and has ~4,35% better range bonus (72/69*100% - 100%)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

---> So the comp bow is ~22% worse than short (100% - 75*1,0435...%)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Of course for better armour penetration it might (not!) be a good choise.

I'm going to move this to the General P2P forum where discussion like this belongs.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Try 50 arrows with any long bow also to compares speeds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'll take speed to a little more hitting power.

everybody does that, that's why comp bows are the only "cheap" new tt at the moment, nobody wants them =P

i am 99 range i got one the other day.. I personally didn't like it all too much... was a lil slower and i didn't really didn't hit as well with it... It looks cool as hell though i will give jagex that...

[zach312]

I bought one and I like it, longer range and a bit greater accuracy, and it's about the same speed of a crystal bow. Plus it looks so cool \

[psycho98]

i got magic comp bow when it first came out. I'm 94 range and used it right away on Nechryaels. Took a lot longer to kill them than my magic short bow so ended up selling it for 600k when it was going around 800k to 1.1 mil. The special on it was frustrating.

[salim123]

what is the spec

 

 

 

and is it true u can do it 3 times

[mysticphonix]

The special takes up 4/10 of the bar so you can only do it twice, as for what it does im not sure yet :oops:

[salim123]

oh

 

 

 

i wonder if the spec is good

[hellbellz]

Maybe add up all the damage taken & your ranged lvl and we can run some tests for Tip.It's updated Ranged Max Calculatorrrrr :D <-- anyone use that smiley anymore?

[blouinator]

i here the mag comp bow only uses 50% of special so i think thats better

[Sly_Wizard]

The special uses 35% of the bar and it's the same as the MLB.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also, the magic composite bow fires approximately the same speed as a crystal bow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And, I might be wrong, but I thought it gave +71 to range.

[Golvellius]

The special is powershot, the same as what the magic longbow has.

 

 

 

It says in Jagex's knowledge base.

 

 

 

Its just increased accuracy, good for hitting through armour.

[adon1]

put how fast each bow shoots on each type of range, accurate, rapid an longrange

[confused]

Could somebody please post a picture of someone wielding it? I'm interested as to what it looks like. :)

[Gravy]

So its a new bow - basically the same as MLB with a slightly higher range and a much bigger price tag? - Seems like a waste to me.

[Marcin117]

Well if anyone wats one i have one for sale. Dunno about the price tho...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It DOES give a +71 range bonus.

[piman1053]

i think the +3 range bonus is nothing compared to how slow it is

[zuomimiez]

I don't have the bow anymore. I don't want to have such junk stored.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I like speed better than power (I do love crystal bow tho) which is why I use darts for training myself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2:28 longbow speed
