As far as I know, there aren't any bows with special properties for dwarves. So you can pick up any bow you want and just alter it.

A 'dwarven bow' is a hurled handaxe or warhammer. Ye ought to be looking for a bandolier, or a returner. I got one I'm playin with right now, but I just picked up a 3.5x enhancive claidhmore, so I may be swapping to 2h for kicks.

[Ormr]

If ye become interested in the throwing aspect of a dwarven bow, lemme know! Good luck!

[Gustamantis]

can I alter something and add dwarven as an adjective? I've never had anything altered, don't even know how to go about it

[Gustamantis]

I don't need anything too overly fancy, maybe just a nice 4x composite bow altered into 'a dwarven ruic composite bow' or something simple like that...

Dwarves. Don't. Use. Bows.

Stop it.

[Sam]

Yeah you can make something dwarven. I turned a critter found claidhmore into a gnomish claidhmore.

eh, I'm tired of swinging, I've done that forever, surely a dwarf has fired a bow before

would I need to find a specific alterer for something like this? or is this something I could pay someone with premium point to alter?

[waywardgs]

Yes, 600 pp's will get you an alter scroll. Runs about 1.5-2m generally.

I'm sure if you stuck a bow in a dwarf's hands, things could pop off. However, a 'dwarven bow' implies that a dwarf crafted it, which is hilariously stupid.

What the fuck kind of dwarf makes a bow for any purpose but to smash it in front of an elf?

I was thinking more of a dwarven sized bow, particularly if it's a longbow...

[Gustamantis]

I'm considering hurling now anyway, I hadn't given thought to a dwarf not liking a bow, it's a good point I think

I find it hilariously stupid that you actually care enough post against some random person making a dwarven bow.

It's not. If you want to play a dwarf that uses a bow, do it.

[Gustamantis]

I appreciate all the input, I've still got like 5 days before my 30days is up, so I'm going to play around with throwing weapons before I make my final decision. I was enjoying the bow.

Thrown sucks unless you can get a returner or a bandolier. Bows ftw.

I'm abbreviation retarded, what's 'ftw'?

For the win. AKA, bows are awesome.

[Gustamantis]

dig it, thanks. btw, I thought FTW maybe stood for 'fuck the world', haha... I'll probably end up going back to the bow. This is all helpful input, thanks everyone.

...but only until the ranged review coming in 2009!

...but only until the ranged review coming in 2009!

I take it this is sarcasm?

[AestheticLife]

Ranged may legitimately suck cock at some point due to said "pending review", so it may not be entirely sarcastic...

As Simu refuses to follow through on their promises though, or really do anything at all, said review may not appear until well after the game's population dwindles down to two digits (in a feeble attempt to regain population, along with monks and very, very half-baked savants that they ripped directly from DR)!

[Gustamantis]

oh I just figured it was sarcasm because you said it was 'coming in 2009!' and it's 2010.
