History

  • In 0.29, longbows had their damage reduced (15 to 12) as well as their mindelay (7 to 6; base delay remained the same). They were affected by the ranged weapons rework that applied to all launchers, including the removal of the dedicated bows skill and arrow requirement.
  • Longbows were introduced in 0.15.
