Need help to find a matching bow

Unread post by Vorel »

Hello,

With Transmogrification coming closer each day and week, i completed some sets that i would like to use but i also came up with a dilemma.

So far i have completed the full Tier 5 set (Rift stalker which is my favorite) found a polearm that looks to fit with the set but the bow i collected (Black bow of the Betrayer) seems not to fit that well. To my surprise the Bow seems quite fitting to Savage Gladiator's Chain Armor,so i may consider that as an alternative option.

Reason i came here is to ask for an advice for a possibly matching bow with the Rift stalker set (note that i ask only for Bows, not Guns or crossbows please). Side note - am also collecting the Demon stalker set (Tier 4) but i really not see that set as a possible option, even if Bow also seems to fit with that set.

Thanks in advance for any replies,with my best regards to the community Vorel.

You might try considering Zod's Repeating Longbow (off Deathwhisper in ICC25), or one of the bone bows such as the Ancient Bone Bow from Scholomance. Some other possibilities may be Titanium Compound Bow and Dragon Slayer's Shortbow.

Hey there,

It's the first time I'm posting here, though I follow these forums for a long time :-)

For my female orc I want to farm the Rift Stalker set too. The best bow and polearm that I have found are the Sonic Spear form the Shadow Labyrinth and the Crypt Fiend Slayer bow from the chest at the end of the Halls of Reflection :-)

Melnora's Twilight Longbow might match the effects, possibly: http://www.wowhead.com/item=27987#.

as for the color, possibly Brutal Gladiator's Longbow? (easy to obtain, too) http://www.wowhead.com/item=35047

Bristleblitz Striker off of archimonde isn't too bad. Not a 100% color match, but very close.

This weapon site finally posted the write up for bows: http://deazeroth.blogspot.com/2011/10/b ... eview.html so you can see pretty much every unique/rare graphic option there is.

I think the crypt fiend slayer or hateful gladiator's longbow would go with t5.
