D1 Unique Bows

Unique Bows found in Diablo and Hellfire.

The listed damage on bows is deceptive, since the damage is simply added to the Rogue's base damage. A rogue with 300 dexterity might do 80-90 damage with a crappy bow, and 92-110 with a Windforce. More damage, but the weapon damage is not multipled by the weapon, as it is for melee fighters. A Warrior couldn't consider using a dagger in hell, while a Rogue could kill adequately with a short bow, and would actually have the same minimum damage with a short bow as with a long war bow.

For this reason, most expert rogues use a bow that grants resistance, since that doesn't cost them much damage, and it makes them more flexible in their other equipment and jewelry. This also means that low level unique bows can be used even in the late game, though the generally lacking stats of most of the Unique Bows makes that less of a viable option.

Hellfire Unique Bows[edit]

Three unique bows were added in Hellfire.

Blitzen[edit]

D1-u-blitzen.gif

Fires lightning bolts, rather than arrows. The damage is rather buggy.

  • Blitzen
  • (Composite Bow)
  • 10-15 Lightning damage
  • Unusual item damage
  • Requirements: 25 strenght, 40 dexterity
  • Durability: Indestructible
  • Qlvl: 13
  • Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.


Flabeau[edit]

D1-u-flambeau.gif

Fires fireballs, just like the spell.

  • Flambeau
  • {Composite Bow}
  • 10-25 Fireball damage
  • Requirements: 70 dexterity
  • Durability: Indestructible.
  • Qlvl: 11
  • Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.


Gnatsting[edit]

D1-u-gnatsting.gif

This bow is greatly overlooked, since the damage is so low. But since weapon damage on bows is just added to the melee damage, not multiplied by it, and since this one fires 3 arrows at a time, all of which can hit the same target, this is actually, by far, the most damaging bow in the game. When used/aimed properly.

  • Gnatsting
  • Hunters Bow
  • 1-2
  • Multiple arrows per shot
  • Quick attack
  • Unusual item damage
  • Requirements: 20 strength, 35 dexterity
  • Durability: Indestructible.
  • Qlvl: 15
  • Availability: SP and MP. Hellfire only.
