so a matter of discussion has come up many times amongst me and other members why is crystal bow not viable? 

 

first off i noticed tonight it is not coded correctly and does not provide its +100 range bonus as it should!!!

 

secondly we believe that the crystal bow being an old outdated weapon is about ready for an update to keep up with the changing times!!!!

 

my suggestion on what i would like to see is essentially fix the bonus of a crystal bow and also improve the attack speed by boosting it to that of the karil's crossbow!!!!

 

increased attack damage with the same attack speed as it has now with the bonus would also be a viable option!!!!

 

i believe this would make the crystal bow very useful especially for ironmen accounts as the crystal bow has unlimited ammo as of now

 

thanks,IRONASH

Doesn't even fire the green arrow, needs a re-camp so it can be the better mid-tier range weapon. Support.

[Silencer]

Support, but no way about increasing attack speed to that of the karil's crossbow. That would be extremely overpowered. Crystal bow has always been slow hitting. Just match OSRS's crystal bow attack speed and offensive bonus.

[Yahweh]

Support, I wanna use the bow since I cant get a T-bow.

 

[Not Salter]

Yeah, I'd like to see it re-vamped & made working.

It shouldn't be too overpowered & it should resemble the one on osrs.

[Iron fixal]

Support, but just make it like the osrs crystal bow imo

[Oh Du Hast]

Support! Definitely needs looking at no doubt.

I'd love to see the bow have a purpose in Alora, or at least function properly, but I don't want to see it get some update that doesn't match that of OSRS, like your attack speed boost suggestion.

Before I did an attempt on making this suggestion too, I came across yours. You have my support on this.

Here is how long it took to do 1 zulrah trip after buying a worthless bow for 26m and wearing full void:

 

[Detharrow26]

Support. 

 

Would be good for people without T-bow.

[Mach]

I support this the crystal Bow needs a revamp.

Support this bow is legendary unbalanced right now at the moment. Crucial element in PVM and PVP scenario's.

 

Crystal bow and rigour after 1 minute: https://gyazo.com/67...59fe03d58b3d159

 

Rune crossbow: https://gyazo.com/06...84b682324015a02

Conclusion: the bow needs hit ratio 5 -> 4. Increasing of the zero stat to + 84
Because it does not degrade like serpentine helm, kraken tentacle this bow should get solid 84 ranged bonus.

Comparison: 1 handed rune crossbow level 62, offers +90 ranged attack bonus.3rd age bow, 65 and equips the archer with +80 ranged bonus. Magic shortbow offers 50 leveled players in ranged a +69 ranged bonus.

Support would be a nice addition to Range.

[IronSheepDog]

support, atleast giving it the stats it has on osrs would be nice

[Classic Hxza]

I think this needs to be added asap, it would make a great addition for range being that currently the blowpipe is the only thing a player needs. 

 

Great suggestion and i support.

[Sheep]

Support, why not.

Added to the main suggestion list, thanks
