Hi everyone,

Here i am once again seeking your help, and again on weapons.

So I've read somewhere that a +4 penetrator bow could last until lvl69 and be even better than the tt60 crossbow is this correct in your opinion?

I'm currently trying to get it trough the Devine contract quests cause i think its way better than gen summer's bow cause of its stats and the possibility of refining.

And could anyone refer a good price, by which i mean fair price for both seller and buyer, for Broad Land bow

    If you want to use it to 69, it is not a big deal - yes it can be used if you have a +4 refine.

    Technically TT60 xbow is has higher DPS than Penetrator if you use same refine level (roughly 15% more DPS on average).
    But this DPS doesn't mean the mobs won't get to attack you once or twice, because of the xbow's lower attack speed.

    If you are not a cash shopper (at least on occasion) then forget about Gen Summer Bow.

    Not 100% on the Broadland, but I think Sign of Frost - Force is about 12M.

    Well about the Broad Land (the bow id love to have)
    Right now in LC theres one +6, 1 socket, for 12mil (pretty cheap imo)

    Also I asked around and a guy told me he sold it for 15mil, but it was +5
    Just to get you a clue of the price in LC atm :)

    I used a TT60 xbow I found that was +3 till 69 and then used a +4 WC (ew slignshots) till 85.

    They were both dirt cheap in the AH and re-sold for the same price.
