| Junior Member |   Shortbows and longbows
Ok, so shortbows +1 have more +ranged accuracy than +ranged attack and you can shoot more quickly. This may offset the less damage. Longbows +1 have more +ranged attack than +ranged accuracy and there is a longer delay. The +ranged attack may offset the ranged accuracy. Let's also say that arrows aren't a problem (I can make my own arrows, so it's pretty darn cheap). Which would you say is better? Would you say they are about the same? Would you say they both have their own place in certain circumstances?

Most people will use longbows because of the lesser arrow usage. If arrows were free, or really cheap, I'd use a shortbow. I make my own arrows as well, but it's far from 'darn cheap.'

Longbow. It enhances WS power... and like he said, uses less arrows.

Ranger isnt a DPS class. We do big burst of dmg Since most of our high dmg skills are like x4 you want much dmg in 1 shot as you can. So you want long bows.
