Odd Bow

Hello,

Would you mind taking a look at this strange looking bow I found customised to my warrior. I'm certain this dropped a long time ago. Is it as odd as I think or just a junk item?

Thanks!

To me that seems quite really old prenerf bow, from 2005 before few mods were removed from blue and purple drops! Very cool

I had considered that it was prenerf and started to look into whether it was, however most of the information I found was for Gold or Purple items. Thanks for the information and appreciation!

Any further advice on this?

Yes very few blue prenerfs excist so not much info about that, but xx/-5 xx/-10 and xx/-1 mods were removed from drop tables sometime on 2005 from blue and purple items so all those mods on blue or purple are prenerfs unless theres some collector/quest rewards

I am another vote for early prenerf. The high req with low dmg makes it extremely unlikely that it was a collector item. Sweet piece!

good eye

This is prenerf: storm bow, highreq, goldvalue not dividable by 5 - won't be collector.

The zeal inherent makes it very prenerfyy unique and desireable - plus a sweet skin! It must have hidden well somewhere on your acc for all those years.

I bet some certain collectors would be very interested in this piece even though it is customized (just in case you were clueless considering what to do with it)

Thank you very much guys! Appreciate all the enlightenment and knowledge here.

If my memory serves me correctly I think it was the first Storm Bow that ever dropped for me (certain it is not a quest item as confirmed above) and I needed a bow to lure on my warrior! I've always known I had the bow, I just don't play my warrior very often and had never looked at the item too closely!

I expected the customisation to put anyone off ever buying it and to be honest I doubt I would consider selling it for the nostalgia/memories. I imagine this is difficult to PC as well due to the oddness?

Who wouldn't want a gorgeous bow signed by the Ddraeg? I would be on that interested list

Flattery will get you nowhere Chevy!

I am really liking the Norn bows with mods on them.I like the skin and the functionality of them. File:Norn Bow.jpg
