Parameter Bonus: Strength, Dexterity,Magic, Fire, Lightning and Dark bonuses - The scaling multiplier applied to the [Attack: stat]. Scaling quality is from highest to lowest as follows: S/A/B/C/D/E.
The higher the player's [Str, Dex, Mag, Fire, Light] stat, the higher the [Attack Bonus: Stat] is (found on the player status screen). The higher the scaling letter, the higher the percent multiplier applied to the [Attack: Stat].
This resulting bonus damage is added to the base physical damage of the weapon and is shown in the equipment screen in blue numbers as a "+ X".
Durability: The weapon's HP, when the durability hits 0, the effectiveness of its attacks become weakened to the point of almost uselessness. When an items durability is low, a message will come up saying "Weapon At Risk!" at this point the weapon does not perform at it's best.
Weight: How much the item weights when equipped.
Stability: How well the player keeps stance after being hit
Attack Type: Defines what kind of swing set the weapon has.

AnonymousI always thought the hunters blackbow had the most range. This outranges it by 5 but has C scaling for Strength and Dex at +10 as opposed to HB which has S in Dex. Combined with hawk ring you can pull off some insane long range shots and I highly recommend it for the shrine of amana spam fest. You won't regret it.

I got this today and have never heard of it. I like it and will upgrade it all the way.

I got this the very first time I killed that bowman on the big boat for the Flexile Sentry bossfight.
Thank you DS2 I'll never use it.

I didn’t know this was a thing until I picked up an apparently very lucky drop. I’ve only upgraded it to +4 so far but I do like this bow very much. Just deciding which upgrade path to follow (haven’t got the dull ember for this character yet).

I have played through No-Man's Wharf dozens of times. I do not recall getting this bow a single time.

DS2 101: your drop rate scales down based on how much time you passed in a area. This is to reward the player when they advance in the game instead of staying on the same area for too long. So if you know a area have a rare drop you want, don't waste time there until you have ways to raise your item discovey rate the most as possible. Personally, i like to have sea bow just to shrine of amana due to it's long range. At that point i equip jester hat, hollow clothes, gold serpent ring +1 and watchdragon parma, maybe can use a rusted coin too. Even then, i still end up with like 5 of every other possible drop from varagian warriors before getting what i actually wanted, as it's a rarest drop among the other possible drops. Good luck.
Wanted 2. Got the first one in less than 15 tries (first archer from bonfire} second bow was stupid. After 200 tries I burnt a bonfire aesthetic and got it on the second try. Hope that helps someone. Good luck.

Rare drop more like ULTRA rare drop. It shouldn't be this hard to get it.

I got it using Prisoner hood, Prisoner chest armor and the shield that increases item discovery.

I got it on my first playthrough on my first run through the village. The cool name for it alone is enough to make me use it.

Literally just learned this item existed and first enemy of my farm killed dropped it. So lucky
For some unknown reason most archers dropped me swords, the one at the ship dropped the bow however

Been farming for two hours and haven't gotten jack-squat. I'm using every item discovery piece of armor with Covetous Gold Serpent Ring +2 and Rusted Coin. Fml ;(
so those vikings ****s can ready and fire in less than half a second when they use this bow but when i use it i have to fire at the same rate with all the other normal bows alright
