Quick Notes:

  • Weapon Level: This is what you need to be able to equip the bow. It's shown as a letter grade (E, D, C, B, A).
  • Might: Basically, the raw damage power of the weapon. Higher is better!
  • Uses: Every weapon has a limited number of uses before it breaks. Keep an eye on this, especially for your best bows.
  • Effect: Some bows have special perks, like attacking twice, healing, boosting stats, or having special range.

Keep these stats in mind when you're choosing your loadout. A Brave Bow can be a game-changer for doubling attacks, while the Longbow and Double Bow are fantastic for keeping your Archers and Snipers safe with their extended range. Don't forget about bows with special effects like the Blessed Bow for healing or the Killer Bow for those critical hits!
