Ok, so i searched everywhere and couldnt find exactly what i was looking for...what exactly are the stats on this bow? From what i hear its good, decently fast, and also possibly the most powerful ranged weapon in the game...just quoting people. I want to make a tech bow..but kind of want to know the stats.
The pyrotechnic bow allegedly does 1-10 damage (2-5 fatigue) with an additional 5-20 fire damage at a speed of 8. The minimum strength requirement is allegedly 10 and the maximum range is 20. Not great, but not bad.
Best tech bow that there is, just dont use it against fire elementaals because itw wont do anything. carry a poisoned bow to deal with them or elumyns bow.
Well let's see, that is D 6 - 30 TWICE. Or every shot with that bow can do 12 - 60 damage in the hands of an Expert. Right up there with the damage of the holy Pyro Axe. This is the only other bow for a tech archer to carry other than Elemun's (SP?) Bow. Massive damage can be better than blinding speed.
Ohhhh yea...i forgot about double shot for the expert bowman..that would seriously change things. What kind of TA makes it so the bow rarely critically fails..higher the better of course, but is there a peak point where it doesnt matter if its higher?
How well your tech stuff works depends upon several things. 1. Your targets MA 2. Your TA 3. The complexity of the tech item AFAIK, there's no point where your TA stops making your items more critical-failure-proof.
Gotcha, well..no skin off my back to go all the way than, just have to work out exactly what im doing... Thanks for the info!
Raise your bow skill & PE to reduce crit failures. Raising TA past 70 increases your TH on magical monsters, & aginst them, reduces the crit fail chance. (The lower your TH, the higher the crit fail %. The higher yout TH, the higher your chance to crit hit.)
