Started buying mats to craft this bow, then they started appearing on the TP for less than 1/2 the cost to buy the mats, so sold the mats and bought the bow. Only drama is I added a Superior Sigil of Fire to the bow, and it does not proc at all. I think ive tested it properly, several hours of 80% crit chance and never triggered. I have fire sigils on my pistols also and they proc on cooldown constantly so I think there is a problem with the bow. 124.187.118.167 19:30, 27 October 2012 (PDT)

Don't bother crafting this bow, stupid ppl are selling it on the TP for under 30g so just buy it, its not worth wasting the mats.60.228.208.145 23:36, 28 October 2012 (PDT)

So, i just found out that this bow is also a drop from the Mad King Chest at the end of his quickly farmable dungeon, thanks so much Anet. You set the materials to craft it at a TP value of about 200g, let some ppl waste a ton on coin on it, then add it to a farmable chest as a drop, top idea. I want my 70g back. :( 60.228.208.145 00:22, 29 October 2012 (PDT)

Buying an item at its introduction will always come with some risk. -- MS 00:35, 29 October 2012 (PDT)

When they set the materials to craft this bow at the amount they did, it was to keep it reasonably rare (or else why put the 4hr timer on the green version), adding it to a farmable chest kinda defeats that imo.60.228.208.145 00:44, 29 October 2012 (PDT)

What's the four hour timer? Does the bow go away after 4 hours of use? DeirdreGreymoon 02:39, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Yes, the weapon skin goes away after four hours. However, there is a permanent exotic version of the weapon that can be crafted or found in the Ascent to Madness chest. -- MS 03:04, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
