Talk:Hornbow

I have a copy of the guildwars prima guide, which is now rather out of date. But acording to it, Horn Bows (and those like it, ie. ivory bows & shadow bows) have 10% armour penetration (see page 177, "Bow Comparisons"). All the other bows have 0% penetration. Should this information be added to the Weapon details information? Or would it be better to simply add it to the descriptions of these three bows? Nectarine 01:20, 23 October 2005 (EST)


 * A more important question is.: Is this information correct? i.e. someone who has a ranger (not me) should take a Horn Bow and a bow of similar stats and measure if on average he bow does higher damage against the same foe. I don't know if Rangers have something like Wild Blow where they can make their attacks constant. But it should show on average (i.e. hit the same type of monster 10 times with one bow, then the other) --Karlos 02:56, 23 October 2005 (EST)


 * Maybe try illusionary weaponry with bows :) --Melly 03:04, 23 October 2005 (EST)


 * That only works with melee weapons, and in no way reflects the damage of the weapon you're using. - Lunarbunny 04:44, 23 October 2005 (EST)

As a side note, the bows the Jade Bows drop are called Horn Bows, too. - Lunarbunny 04:49, 23 October 2005 (EST)
