There are a total of '''5''' bows, with most being purchasable in town. There is a '''Novice Bow, Apprentice Bow, Master Bow, Scatter Bow, and the Crystal Bow'''. Each bow has a draw time before it's ready to fire.  
There are two bow types that players can choose from: ''swiftbows'' and ''crossbows''. Crossbows are perfect for long range attacks given their higher projectile speed alongside being accurate '''while''' standing still. This is offset by its slower firing speed and no base recovery chance compared to swiftbows.  
Swiftbows have the potential to rival the DPS of most weapons due to their fast firing speed and high recovery chance. They lack the high projectile speed that crossbows have and generally have poor accuracy.


Bows use arrows to fire, so you need to manage your resources to use a bow. Arrows can be obtained from dungeon shops as well as from treasure chests and bosses/minibosses. Arrows also have a recovery chance depending on which bow you're using, and armor you're wearing (See Ranged Armor below).

The base amount of arrows a player can hold is 25, but this can be raised with Ranger armor, (See Ranged armor below), or by holding Quivers in one's inventory. There are 10-slot quivers sold in town for 100 gold and 25-slot quivers that can be found in the dungeon from boss/miniboss drops, and rarely found in dungeon shops for ~1,200 gold.

Ranged[edit]

There are two bow types that players can choose from: swiftbows and crossbows. Crossbows are perfect for long range attacks given their higher projectile speed alongside being accurate while standing still. This is offset by its slower firing speed and no base recovery chance compared to swiftbows. Swiftbows have the potential to rival the DPS of most weapons due to their fast firing speed and high recovery chance. They lack the high projectile speed that crossbows have and generally have poor accuracy.

Bows use arrows to fire, so you need to manage your resources to use a bow. Arrows can be replenished from dungeon shops, chests, or through the use of quivers. Arrows also have a recovery chance depending on which bow you're using and armor you're wearing (See Ranged Armor below).

Name Damage/Firing Rate Base Recovery Chance Alternate Firing DMG Cost (Gold)
Novice Bow 25 DMG, 0.55s per shot 0% None 75
Hunter's Swiftbow 30 DMG, 0.55s per shot 10% 30 DMG per projectile, 8s cooldown 500
Hunter's Crossbow 120 DMG, 1.15s per shot 0% 30 DMG per projectile * 3 projectiles, 8s cooldown 500
Ranger's Swiftbow 35 DMG, 0.3s per shot 20% 35 DMG per projectile, 7s cooldown 4000
Ranger's Crossbow 160 DMG, 1.15s per shot 0% 40 DMG per projectile * 3 projectiles, 7s cooldown 4000
Elvish Swiftbow 40 DMG, 0.2s per shot 30% 40 DMG per projectile, 6s cooldown 12000
Dwarven Crossbow 200 DMG, 1.15s per shot 0% 50 DMG per projectile * 5 projectiles, 6s cooldown 12000
Crystal Bow 65 DMG, 0.4s per shot 30% 120 DMG per projectile * 3 projectiles, uses 20% special and 150 mana 25000
Sayonara Bow 30 DMG per projectile * 3 projectiles, 0.57s per shot 10% 40 DMG per projectile (?) * 3 projectiles, uses 30% special 25000

All bows have a special attack feature alongside their basic attack. Unlike Legendaries, they don't tap into one's "special attack gauge" but rely on a cooldown between uses. Swiftbows will rapidly fire several arrows, whereas crossbows will instantly shoot out several arrows in a fanning formation. The crystal bow has a multiplier for arrow modifiers, while the sayonara bow will be able to fire off three arrow modifiers at once for the cost of one. Using one's special attack doesn't use up arrows, but requires for ranger-type armor to be equipped.
