    Starting to feel desperate for a new bow again. The Ash Longbow really doesn't cut it against Raptors and their evasion.

    Ah man, so jealous. I got reports of someone seeing the Elm Velocity Bow on my server last night but I had no luck tracking down the Carpenter who had possibly made it.

    Probably rocking R40 tonight so maybe I should aim higher, haha.

    Any thoughts on Foeseeker, btw? Can't figure out where the accuracy increase is.

    Yeah its odd, not really sure if there is any accuracy increase. Also there aint no buff icon after using it. Its still a decent ws tho.

    Yeah can't complain about the damage but I'd like to know what the accuracy stuff is about.

    Are you still using Heavy Shot btw like you mentioned earlier? Perhaps now with your new bow and upped Accuracy. >;

    Yeah I use Heavy Shot. On to bow news, one carpenter said he has the r47 bow recipe and said he will make it soon. Dont know this player well, so dont know if it was bullcrap. He said price is high, 2M.

    Next stop, Bloodletter.

    Can't decide if I want to use Heavy Shot or not, I tried it before but that was around Efts and I had better accuracy back then (since I still use the Ash Longbow) and it feels like a loss rather than a gain using it right now.

    Still no sign of any bows on my server and the high level CRPs here is seem to focus on other things. The recipe for Weevil Bow is out but that seem like a huge pain to make so still hoping for that Oak Composite.

    edit: As I feel right now I'd definitely pay 2mil for R47 bow, haha.

    I spam Flint Arrows because really, WTF else am I going to use gil on with no (serious) economy in place?

    Also, I played RNG so I'm totally cool with wasting all my money on ammo.

    Was the Oak Composite a part of it as I'm assuming? Finally popped up on my server yesterday so I don't feel as gimped anymore and it sure made leveling easier.

    Do any other archers feel like they are getting less SP than others in a party setting? Whenever I'm grinding on efts/something similar in a party in the 25-30 or 27-32 range and people start listing their skill gains, Mine is always among the lowest, especially compared to tanks. But even other DDs seem be be getting more SP. Is there something I'm not doing right?

    My gear is about the best that it can be, with accuracy rings and Ash Longbow at Rank 27. Every once in awhile I'll have a missfest but for the most part my accuracy is decent, so it's not like missing every shot. I've tried spamming light shot, I've tried stacking Raging/Hawk's/Ferocity with Multishot, I've tried using and not using WS's, doesn't seem to change anything.

    EDIT: I also eat Salt Cods for +Accuracy
