I was wondering, with the bow i use now (Tuigan Bow +1), and the arrows i use, usually just +1, a lot of times i get "weapon ineffective"... I was wondering, if I used Short Bow of Gesen or Tansheron's Bow +3, do i still use arrows at all? it does say it doesn't require them... do they do less dmg if i do not use arrows? also, since both these bows don't require arrows, and both are +3/+4, do they also hit as +3/+4?? (btw, which of the 2 bows are better? I'm assuming gesen b/c its broken up into parts, hehe... does it shoot that much slower than my current Tuigan Bow? b/c i absolutely love its spd, heh)

hehe, thanks for the help everyone!

also, is the Tansheron's Bow +3 a short bow or a long bow?

Well if the target does not reqiure a better plus that the bow then you can hit it! and bows that do not need arrows have th habbit to launch their arrows and not the once that where left in your quiver!

Arrows +2 will handle most of the enemies in the game.

The Tansheron Shortbow fires +3 enchanted phantom arrows.

The Gesen Shortbow fires +4 enchanted phantom arrows.

Gesen is excruciating slow unless you use real arrows with it.

I'm usually a Swashbuckler Dual-Wielding, so bow's don't matter.

Dual-Wielding is something I always do! Try it everyone.

Or, if you don't want to because you are very difficult, try it with a Greater/Whirlwind, and watch the arrows fly!!!!

EDIT: Extra Detail
