Category talk:Lowmort 21-30 Missile Weapons

Ok, here is something someone can help with: there are no longbows appropriate for a level 30 archer, and it's a question because that's when it starts becoming really hard to solo with an archer, so, any advice? The next level set of missile weapons includes nothing appropriate for a level 30 archer. --Arcano 12:45, 8 February 2007 (CST)

This spot used to be filled by Scorpion's Sting, but that's gf'ed now. After a quick scan of the info here, the best option I could find was the Hunting Long Bow. It only provides 7 hr, but better than nothing. Does anyone know if the imms ever made a replacement to Scorpion's Sting? This is just a guess, but maybe there's something in Shadow Forest.

I coulda sworn that there was a replacement for the Sting. Maybe in one of the piratey areas? 7hr vs 12hr isnt that big a deal at this level; and besides, Archers shouldnt solo with longbows anyway.--Kerdor 13:28, 8 February 2007 (CST)

Ok so i guess I was unclear but I was looking for a longbow because they hit the hardest and don't mess up all the times like a crossbow.
I ended up going with an enchanted bow Starlight, and 5 hr is more of a difference at low levels than it is at hero.--Arcano 14:06, 8 February 2007 (CST)

Longbow AND Heavy crossbow both suck for soloing. Period. Use a light Xbow; or even a short bow. Especially enchanted light xbows. Works just fine.--Kerdor 14:16, 8 February 2007 (CST)
I was looking for a longbow to take advantage of the hitting power of archer and find someone to tank me, becuase at that point it was slow to solo even with a good set of wields or a light xbow, due to extremely low damage, but perhaps I was doing something wrong. It was not impossible, just very tedious.
