Longbow

A longbow is a natural composite bow with length of 4 to 6 feet. A longbow is one of the best bows for new players or players with a lower skill in bows because it is much more accurate and has a longer range than any other bow (crossbows not being included). It is not craftable. ''Any bow between four and six feet high, generally the same height as the archer. The bow is carefully cut from the heartwood and bodywood of a branch, and is in effect, a natural composite bow. The tips are usually sheathed with horn and the string is generally made from hemp. The longbow has amazing power and accuracy, but it takes years of training to become proficient in it's use.''
