The Strong Bow and Siege Arbalest are about 1/6 of the cost and has 5%/6% to kill and 40%/30% extra damage respectively. Am I missing something?
well you have to be strong to use strong bow and subject to dropping it when hexed and siege arbalest is a heavy, clumsy weapon (-3 to init). The to hit/init mods for EEB are also a little better than strong bow. Does it make up for the lesser kill %? Crash on to Dominus with an elven bow and don't worry about it (elf not included).

On the other hand, I don't know what's so great about a great bow.
