When Secondborn Lonicera sacrificed herself to protect the Pale Tree, a small root sprung from the ground where she breathed her final breath. That root took the shape of a mighty bow.

Graphics[edit]

Kudzu is a green longbow covered in flowers. Its riser takes the shape of a sylvari carrying a golden spear with a thistle texture overlay that pulses gold. While drawn, the bow sheds petals.

Aura
  • Pink leaves and sparkles swirl around forearms.
Critical hit effects
  • Critical strikes while wielding Kudzu will cause flowers and leaves to blossom on your target(s).
Draw/Stow effects
  • A birdsong is heard when drawing/stowing the bow.
  • A patch of grass and flowers appears at feet before fading, similar to the footfall effect but larger.
Footfalls
  • The user leaves behind footprints of flowers and grass.
Skill effects

Gallery[edit]

There is a bug where Kudzu's projectiles will become other Kudzus, making it appear as though you are firing copies of the longbow instead of the normal projectiles.

Trivia[edit]

  • Kudzu is a vine-plant native to southern Japan and southeast China. It is also very invasive, hard to kill and has taken over much of the southern United States.
  • The Heart of Thorns expansion added new graphics to the bow (leaves and vines on drawing and forearm effect.)
    • Additionally, the Rising Flames release replaced the normal black bowstring with a golden one.
