The Amazonian Curved Bow
Click the bow for a larger viewFrom the fabled dark jungles of Amazonia, the female warriors of Gamburu are well known for their combat prowess with bronze-bladed short swords and curved bows. At the cost of many brave lives, Hyrkanian raiders brought home a handful of the unique Amazonian bows, now mostly found in the black markets of Aquilonia.
The bow can be given to eight characters per account but cannot be equipped by any character without archery skills. You must learn these skills in order to use this bow. Rangers and Barbarians learn bow skills at level five, Tempests of Set and Bear Shaman learn bow skills at level 22, and the remaining eight classes do not currently have a way to learn how to use the bow.
The Amazonian curved bow is designed to be a very effective weapon when you've left the tender care of Tortage and are making your way in the big world for the first time.
