- The bow of carnage is a good utility weapon that works in most situations.
- Practice lobbing the right-click attack for this bow until you feel for how quickly it drops. You have to aim high when using the incendiary arrows.
- This bow gains range if you fire from a high position, especially for the right-click attack.
- Be careful – you can injure yourself with the right-click attack if you accidentally fire up into a doorframe or ceiling.

Death Blossom Bow
Cost: 5,000
Weapon Slot: 1
Max Load: 30
Reload time (sec): 3
LC Attack: Fires a magical shot straight ahead that inflicts moderate damage.
RC Attack: Arcs a magical shot into the air which after a short time will explode into multiple shots, raining down a magical fire that damages anyone in the area. Pressing the right mouse button while the initial shot is in the air will cause it to detonate early (be sure you don’t inadvertently explode your first shot prematurely when you really meant to fire a second shot).
Range (ft): LC–1000 RC-400 (60 for blossom)
Speed (ft/sec): LC-200 RC-200 (15 for blossom)
Damage: LC-19 RC–25 x 10 blossoms
Attacks per sec: LC-3.5 RC-1
Effect radius (ft): LC-- RC-10 for each blossom
Cost (ammo): LC-1 arrow RC-5 arrows
- The death blossom bow sends out an orange projectile that fragments at impact.
- This expensive bow is best suited to delivering ranged area damage, for instance, against people camped out on an upper ledge.
- You don't have to be able to see your targets to hit them. Lob the right-click attack up over whatever is blocking your view, and will likely damage them.
- The right-click attack wont activate unless the arrow is at least 10 feet about the ground. So, you cant aim directly at a target and hit it.
- Time the detonation so that it goes off just above your target's head. (right-click while the arrow is in flight). The fragmented projectiles will do the most damage in that situation. If you don't manually detonate it, it will do so on its own impact.

Eye Bow
Cost: 10,000 (May only be purchased by Archer)
Weapon Slot: 1
Max Load: 30
Reload time (sec): 3
LC Attack: Fires a powerful arrow straight ahead. Its high rate of fire makes this weapon particularly deadly.
RC Attack: Fires a magical eye that you can control and attempt to guide toward its target. Excellent for scouting or for a ranged attack, the eye explodes for area damage when it comes into contact with anything, including enemy fire. It also explodes after 15 seconds. Release the button to detonate it before it strikes anything.
Range (ft): LC–1000 RC-750
Speed (ft/sec): LC-200 RC-50
Damage: LC-24 RC–49
Attacks per sec: LC-5 RC-1
Dmg radius (ft): LC-- RC-20
Cost (ammo): LC-1 arrow RC-5 arrows
- The left-click attack of the eye bow shoots normal arrows, but with higher damage and faster rate of fire than any other bow.
- The right-click attack function creates a wizards eye that can be steered and detonated. When you use this attack, your view shifts to an onboard-camera view. If you're attacked or hit you loose you view.
- The wizard's eye moves slowly and can be shot down or dodged. However, it lasts quite a while.
- By using the wizard's eye, you can scout an area or attack from around corners. This works best in an open area - it's hard to turn tight corners.
- The wizard's eye detonates upon impact or after 15 seconds, and can often kill nearby opponents.
- When using the right-click attack, you cannot move. This make you vulnerable to a melee attack. Make sure you're well you're well hidden before you release the eye.
