Is the Heartseeker REALLY the best longbow in the game? If not.. where can i get the best bow?

I like the mana bow the best. good magic resistance and enchantments.

What about the elven court bow? Nice and strong bow that! Not as good as HS though

heartseeker is crap. the only good thing is that improved accuracy for a short time (too short if you ask me).

I sorta like the Mana Bow. I've forgotten if there was a better longbow in the game actually, but I'm sure there was. The Heartseeker's bonus issint that great, IMHO. The +7 doesnt make a great deal of difference, not that I can see.

Why?

erm, gesen doesn't require ammo (and yes the heatseeker is deadly, since it can take critters that require +4 or more...)

How can anything but Gesen's Bow be considered +4 for determining what it can hit? It is the arrows that count, and there are only +2 arrows (piercing arrows are still considered +2 for what they can hit). I tried Heartseeker with every type of arrow (even a couple of detonation arrows I found) against Kangaxx, and it wouldn't scratch him.

why only LONGbow ?

Mazzy with Tansheron's Bow +3 (shortbow) rules ...
less creatures (clay golem) can stand it http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

edit: doesnt need ammo, 'uses' arrows+3
