| A long, strong bow made of yew. It does excellent damage in combat and a skilled archer can use it to great effect. |
This weapon falls into the 'Bows' category. Note that while the base damage is 15, the base damage of an arrow is added to give an overall base damage of 22.
Longbows are a marked improvement over shortbows, dealing much more damage in exchange for a slight accuracy penalty and a higher skill requirement for fast attacks. Mid- and late-game bow-users will absolutely want to upgrade to one of these.
