Notes

• This longbow can be upgraded with a Bow Grip, but any new mods added to this weapon cannot be salvaged.
• This item is always customized for the character that the /bonus command was used with. However, this command can be reused on each character, consistently respawning the weapon.
• Although the weapon is customized for the character, heroes can still use it. When using the /bonus command while a hero has it equipped, it creates a second item in the character's inventory that can be used normally.
• It cannot be placed in the trade window.
• It cannot be dropped.

Dye

Dye affects the entire bow. The default color looks to be yellow.

Trivia

• The design of this weapon is one of the finalists in ArenaNet's second Design-a-Weapon Contest which ran in 2007. It was designed by Marko Cvetkovic.
