Talk:Drago's Flatbow

Flat Bow vs. Flatbow
Hm...I don't know what the policy is; This item used to be called Drago's Flat Bow. I currently have a 20/20 version that is a Drago's Flatbow (no space). Should this article be moved?

If you need proof, I can provide a screenshot.--Thedarkmarine


 * I just confirmed that with an old 10/10 version. The name has changed to Drago's Flatbow - screenshot to be uploaded later. --Chi Li [[Image:Chi_Li.gif|Chi Li]] 00:42, 9 June 2006 (CDT)
 * Mine's also showing as Drago's Flatbow. Moving the article now ... --- Barek (talk &bull; contribs) - 01:04, 9 June 2006 (CDT)

The Picture
Holy crap the pic of the actual weapon looks way outa proportion... or is it really a huge bow? --69.107.109.252 23:29, 11 September 2006 (CDT)
 * It's the biggest bow I know of. Quite the prestige item. -Auron [[Image:Elit Druin.jpg|||My Talk]] 23:30, 11 September 2006 (CDT)
 * It's not big, it's HUGE! [[Image:Tomoko's_Cookie.jpg|19px]] Tomoko Pink Angel 13:52, 12 January 2007 (CST)

Rocky Reference?
Maybe it's only a coincidence but seems to reference Ivan Drago from Rocky IV, huge.
 * Or, more likely, a reference to the boss that drops this bow: Drago Stoneherder. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 10:19, 16 January 2007 (CST)
 * Or Stoneherder is a reference to Ivan which is the reason this bow is huge? ZanderArch 20:44, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

15% in Stance
There exists a version of this bow that is damage +15% in a stance, instead of the typical 15% while health is over 50% (15^50). I almost let someone sell it to me just now. Buyers beware.--Ninjatek 14:33, 27 January 2007 (CST)
 * Uh...really? I don't suppose you got a screenshot? I really hope they haven't secretly started changing ALL the SF greens. Case in point: Wroth's Holy Rod which got screwed over. Drago's too, with a 15% stanced this becomes a crappy bow. >< Entropy 14:35, 27 January 2007 (CST)
 * By the time it crossed my mind to get a screenshot, he had already sold it. We had a conversation about the fact that it was a stanced weapon though.  It was definitely 15% in stance.  If I see it again, I'll post a screenshot.  I'm not necessarily asking people to be believe me without proof, but I do suggest that buyers be cautious.  Inevitably, someone will encounter this again.--Ninjatek 14:51, 27 January 2007 (CST)
 * I'll bet alot of money that it was Drago's Vampiric Flatbow. 65.30.20.46 22:36, 2 February 2007 (CST)

size (again)
it may not be a big bow, anyone with the bow can go make a midgit character an just equip the bow.


 * Yes, but item size scales depending on char size. &mdash; Skuld 10:52, 5 May 2007 (CDT)
 * Personally, i think the size looks totally retarded. I can't understand why ANYONE would want this bow, it's like walking around with a big bent log, maybe fun for wintersday stuff, like jokes, but i prefer my bows to look cool rather than ridiculous.

 * You must not have actually seen one in-game. It is cool to have such a large bow; apart from the "Feathered Flatbow" skin, most bows are decidedly stubby. I like my Drago's a lot, much better than Urgoz's ugly Flatbow. Now if it had the Urgoz's Longbow skin...too bad longbows are useless. Arshay Duskbrow 22:16, 7 August 2007 (CDT)
 * I can pretty much picture in my head what it'd look like in game. Still think it's ridiculous and stupid. Urgoz's Flatbow has a great skin, black with yellow rocky things(i know it's amber). I like my Urgoz's Flatbow, and i like my "stubby" Bladed Recurve Bow(which is made from custom parts, and dyed black) because it looks like an actual bow rather than a big stick. One question remains, though...why aren't there any goddamn bowstrings?--Darksyde Never Again 22:38, 9 August 2007 (CDT)
