    I feel better knowing that I'm not the only one that has been screwed royally by the horrible drop rate.

    Yesterday as I stood staring at the Qu'Hau Spring in Ro'Maeve for three hours during the full moon waiting for the weather to break so I could get an Arc Pentashpere, I wondered, "Why would Square design it so that you could get screwed for weeks at a time from being able to Divine Might?"

    And then I remembered Square's grand vision for the game, and it all made sense.

    P.S. I didn't get one.

    Ugh; I had to wait 3 full moons before I could get mine a few years back; I feel the pain. Every night was cloudy for the first 2 full moons.

    I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you probably don't want to be an endgame bow using ranger and NOT have one of those. lol

    Re: Eastern Shadow

    Shigeto Bow or the HQ version are both good bows for the Budget endgame ranger without Selenes or E.bow.

    considering selenes costs only carrots, not having it makes you a cheap ass ranger, not a budget one

    Shigeto Bow is a joke for RNG75. I fully agree with Sonomaa. There's no excuse not to get a Selene's Bow if you are bound and determined to use Archery. It's just that much better.

    It's not as if the bunny NM is hard either.

    Re: Eastern Shadow

    if youre really serious about bow ranger there, only relic bow is better than ebow, so consider that when deciding which part you want to invest in

    Seriously what ranger doesn't have a Selene's bow. The NM is easy, can be duoed or soloed, depending on your job. Carrots are dirt cheap.

    But ya, currently 0/5 on ES. Missed 3 Claims and lost ToD today. DAMN U SE. DAMN U TO HELL! -.-t

    How do you guys managed keep track rabbit footprint freely while soloing the NM? IIRC there are some raptors on the spawn spot too

    The raptors hang back from most of the footprint spawns, and don't come near the back wall. Just set up camp there, and if the footprint pops next to a rapotor just wait a few seconds until it moves to a more convenient spot.

    Re: Eastern Shadow

    I didn't even bother soloing it, I just grabbed a couple bored LS members and went up. It's not a difficult fight at all, really. The hardest part imo is actually spawning him from the moving footprint.
