long bows look sexier lawl seriously i think theres about 10 different short bow designs they all look the same when i still used them i was like thats ok im sure they'll look cooler eventually but they dont

I have 3 bows and I love the 3 of them.

- Elven Short Bow for fighting (fast/range 25).
- Precision Short Bow for rep shot(medium/range 25).
- Composite Impale Long Bow of Xymerald for running victims(slow/range 30)

I may eventually look for a fast short bow range 20.

Use a medium range 20 bow for rep. shoot, even more damage

Don't worry about the short bow you use, just use dirty fighting before you fire your rep

I am using a lvl 50 Dragon Wings long bow of Xymarald Lamina, Range 30, Speed medium.

I prefer long bows with medium speed and range 30 even with my marksmen.

I rarely use slow bows but they are also good.

Slow 30
Fast 25

And thats about it. Both bought from merchants, no shinny ximmy thingy with enhancement and stuff.

I like 20m bows :] i have 2, both medium, one 25 range medium and one 30m slow.

just tried longbow spec again. highly frustrating. two screens of nothing but evade evade evade block block block evade evade evade..... etc etc. About enough to make me go back to wow. At least there my attacks hit something. Every class in the game seems to be able to block 100% of my arrows for 30+s at a time. long bow is level 47 xymerald, master level arrows....

Just so you know you can cast Ensaring arrow with a Short Bow. I think range will still be 30. I'm not sure of that, but when I cast ensaring arrow on a too far away mob, I can hit him if i'm not so far away. So I really think ensaring arrow is a range 30 spell for all bows ^_^.

PS: I'm already hearing bla bla bla... hunters are so overpowered.

Ensnaring arrow is set range 30.

But I think she uses slow longbows because the spell is based on weapon dmg and so the slow bow will hit harder with ensnaring than a fast bow would.
