Desirability
Zephyr[1] is a near-perfect weapon for anyone with a good Bows skill. Experienced archers may occasionally prefer a highly-enchanted longbow with the vorpal or holy wrath brand for dealing more damage per hit and taking out heavily armoured opponents, but a speed brand on a +8 longbow is an extremely effective combination against just about any target. Overall, a highly respectable weapon.
Trivia
Prior to version 0.20, this was known as the bow of Krishna "Sharnga".
