Library info for Bone Bow:  
Base damage: 19, Can be used by: rangers, Description:A rather oddly formed bow. It was warped within the swamplands. A tribe of cannibals that dwelled long ago within the swamps before the Hydra's came. They crafted a bow of bone. Created from the leg bone of a human it was left out til it became soft from rain and water then bent and tied with human skin forming the string. Drawn tightly it hits swiftly but not as damaging as a wooden bow. Level needed to equip it: 22, Magical: No, Vamparic: No, Armor: -1, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0.5, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: , Mana leech:  
 
Alt drop for the spirit or hydra heads.  
 
example: The Hydra Head sinks into the swamps. As it submerges it coughs up in a gush of crimson blood what seems to be an ancient bow. You got a Bone Bow.

Library info for Bow Of Life
Base damage: 8, Can be used by: Rangers, Description: This bow looks like a normal rusted steel bow, but as you pick it up an aura seems to surround you, as you pull back the string you realise it isn't made of string its a very thin peice of wood, so thin it is thinner than any peice of string you have ever seen., Level needed to equip it: 20, Magical: Yes, Vamparic: No, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: -1, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: Crystal giant 1.4, Mana leech: .
 
This bow would be an alternate for rangers to use instead of spider staff, it hasn't got vamparic so i added a 1.4 damage against the crystal giant.
It could be a drop from Rel'Thon and like a 20% chance of dropping it

I can't see people using that to be honest.
 
Library info for Steel Long Bow:
Base damage: 15, Can be used by: rangers, Description: Though it is similar to the steel bow, this bow's greater size enables you to fire arrows over long distances with tremendous accuracy., Level needed to equip it: 20, Magical: No, Vamparic: No, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: , Mana leech: .
 
Same level, base is almost twice as much. Isn't magic I admit, but that makes no difference in damage. And, doing extra damage against CG is useless aswell, as a level 20 ranger wouldn't be going there, and at level 25 they get an enchanted bow, with a base of 21.

Figured I'd resurect this because it is interesting to see peoples ideads for new bows. Here are a few of mine:
 
Library info for Gnoll Bow:  
Base damage: 18, Can be used by: rangers, Description: This bow is very crude. It is made from petrified woods from the Forest of Souls. The hand grip was wrapped in tough leather for a bit more comfort, although it is still difficult to get a good grip. The string is extremely tight, and difficult to pull back, but as you let loose your arrow, it flies at an extremely high velocity penetrated deep into your target. Level needed to equip it: 21, Magical: No, Vamparic: No, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: Gnoll 1.25, Mana leech: .
 
Gnoll Archer drop, 10% drop.
 
Or a bow you can purchase in a shop:
 
Library info for Composite Long Bow:  
Base damage: 20, Can be used by: rangers, Description: This large bow is fashioned very well, the wood is smooth and sturdy, the string is tight and unfrayed. There a small nothes along the length of the bow that help to allign your sight with your target. The string is difficult to pull back so it would take an experienced Ranger to weild such a weapon. Level needed to equip it: 22, Magical: No, Vamparic: No, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: , Mana leech: .

Jewelled Bow:
 
Base Damage: 17
 
 Created by the same craftsman of Jewelled Sword fame, this weapon is commonly used as symbol of status and wealth over a tool for combat. The bow is crafted from an unknown flexible tan wood, and adorning the face of the bow is a row of jewels from far and foreign lands. The bow is carved and curved to perfection and is well accompanied by an impeccable shining finish.

Poison Kiss Bow
 
level needed - 27
Base dmg - 10
Desc - Crafted precisely from the finest Windian oak, and laced in a thin layer of Cobalt, a popular material amongst craftsmen. The bow feels cold to the touch, and the densely wrapped feathered grip gives off an unmistaken green glow. The arrows supplied with the bow feel light and rigid, but don't look as if they would be capable of penetrating through tough armors. The arrow tips are carefully tinted with a lethal dosage of Tree Frog venom.
 
Stats - Nothing special
Poison - 50 dmg every 30 seconds.
 
I think this would be a cool addition to the game, as it could provide rangers with a bit of strategy - Whether to use an enchanted bow for maximum damage, or fire a few poison arrows at a target and hope the poison kills them if they run off.
 
Would be sold at windia.

Do you realise how long 30 seconds is in a fight? Let alone a minute.

Ancient Oak Bow
Base Damage-18, Can be used by: Rangers, Description: Taken from the Great Tree in the Ancient Forest, this bow is the most beautiful you have ever seen. Legend claims that the Ancient God secretly created this when he came to realization that the gifts bestowed upon himself were nothing in comparison to the gifts given to the Druid of Barrier Forest. Shortly after the completion of it, the Ancient God lost it while he was walking through the forest. It was lost for almost an eternity but now has been recovered., Level needed to equip it: 20, Magical: No, Vamparic: No, Armor: 0, Strength modifier: 0, Intelligence modifier: 0, Dexterity modifier: 0, Constitution modifier: 0, Wisdom modifier: 0, Charisma modifier: 0, Poison chance: 0, Poison/30s damage: 0, Monster damage table: , Mana leech: .
 
no clue what is planned for the Giant Oak in Natura so i was thinking this as being the boss drop for it? obviously it would be a rare drop. seeing that its the same lvl equip as steel long bow but it has a higher base damage.
