Tungsten bar fletching and ranged arrow arcs
Crafted at an Iron Anvil or Lead Anvil using 7 Tungsten Bars, the Tungsten Bow provides dependable mid-tier archery for worlds with tungsten ore. Firing arrows at 26 use time, it adds 10 base ranged damage onto whichever ammunition is loaded, allowing rangers to strike targets at safe ranges.
Mid-tier pre-boss archery and silver tier parity
Serving as the tungsten alternate to the Silver Bow, it deals slightly higher base damage per arrow than silver while cycling at an identical rate. Pairing this bow with Frostburn Arrows or Flaming Arrows yields sufficient ranged power to confront the Eye of Cthulhu in early boss encounters. While eventually overshadowed by the Gold Bow or Demon Bow, it bridges the gap effectively during early exploration. Reforging it to Unreal grants the greatest bonuses to projectile velocity, damage, and critical chance.
Trivia
- Forging the bow requires 7 bars, which translates to 28 raw tungsten ore smelted at a furnace.
- Its distinctive greenish coloration aligns with the complete Tungsten Armor set for ranger characters.
