Yashira finally took pity on me for killing Arch Sultan Radiz so many times and never getting a bow so she dropped this little beauty for us tonight (thanks again, Forsaken):

And I just love it. My only concern is with the proc. Several times I got the msg "Your target is out of range". I looked it up in the spellfile and the spell has a range of 20. At maximum distance for the spell to fire, you are very likely to be too close to use the bow. Is there a typo in the range on the spell? Should it be 200 instead?

Thank you for your time.

Edit: The bow finally proc'd when I had a mob right up in my face. Then every tick I got "ERROR: String not found. (6821)" until the mob died 30 secs later.
Edit2: I saw Wiz's post about 6821 error and re-ran the patcher. It did pick up some new files that I didn't have so that should fix the error msg. But still doesn't help with max proc range being roughly equal to minimum bow range.
 
Just out of curiousity: For how much do you hit max/max. crit with that baby?

Sorry for derailment, just have to know ;)
 
Thank you for the quick response. Spell range changed to 300 <3

Gea, in limited use I've seen non-crit hits for a little over 1k. I've seen 1-2 crits for 2kish but I haven't had a cripple for 4k yet. But I can't cripple on mobs over L61, so I'll only get those in exp groups not on raid mobs.
 
The change made for this weapon had a humorous unintended result, snakes in WPL now proc their poison on you from VERY far away :)
 
When the bow procs, I now get a msg about TargetType (|x|). The same msg you get when using the alchemy haste potion.


PS. I actually kinda like the graphic. I've seen pretty much all the bow graphics, I like the red glowing orb better than most :)
