The use of a Bow

I currently have the level 70 TT bow for the occasions i need one, and i was just wondering if there is a point where i need a bow that will give me the max damage output possible, or if this will be serviceable for any time i need a bow

at the moment, i have found little use of a bow, but i do realize some higher level TT's will have AoE physical bosses where i want to stand back.

Just would like people opinions on how much they actually use a bow, and if its worth spending any kind of decent coin on one

    When you feel like auto attacking from a distance.

    When you wanna range kill a squishy without them knowing its a sin, and if they find out just shadow port.

    Heads.

    Looks.

    Laziness.

    I dunno, I got my bm a TT70 bow for looks because the low level bows look silly.

    Heads, harpies and debuffing are the only things that come to mind.

    For all of those, I'd recommend Heaven Shatterer. Of course, it's a bit overkill for heads and harpies, but it's a good choice for a final bow for the purge.

    If you see b:cute be sure to take a second, calm look at anything I said.

    Yes heavenshatterer is the most popular bow for sins because of the purge.
    The purge almost never works when you want though, and some of the richer sins on my server like to go all the way to G15 nirvana with it an get spirit blackhole on it. I can also mention I have such a bow an it is possible to hit people who think they are gonna run from you an kill them. Is also very handy in removing bramble from those pesky cata barbs in tw, the 2nd nirvy boss, the green guy in tt, pk, heads and hands in fc, etc. A g15 bow at +10-12 in a sins hands has a decent amount of damage.

    I got guardian of the realm through divine quests for a bow. Not putting money into a heads killer.

    I've seen sins with bows and was wondering about this too. But I guess it would come in handy as Pyro pointed out. I'll keep that in mind when building my sin and what weaps will come in handy for certain situations.

    I have the Lunar 1st cast Nirvana Bow. I plan to 2nd cast it, but that won't be for a while.

    I got it mainly for the looks, but the extra damage it has over Heaven Shatterer is quite nice.

    This is what it looks like
