A wonderful golden bow.

It once belonged to a foreign god. It works best with special arrows which are not generally available.

The "special arrows" do not exist in-game, but luckily this weapon is perfectly effective without them.

Desirability

Sharnga is an excellent weapon for anyone focused in Bows. Experienced archers may prefer a highly-enchanted longbow with the vorpal brand for dealing more damage per hit and taking out heavily armoured opponents, but a speed brand on a +8 bow is still an extremely effective combination against low- and medium-AC targets. Overall, a highly respectable weapon.
