Guild Wars 2

I actually do not care if it looks exactly the same, and you can just assign its skin to short bow as well. Can we get a short storm bow? Please?

Goodness, YES!
I bought this for my thief without noting it is for long bows only. It was just a blind sort of excitement because my thief’s RP is heavily influenced by lightning magic.

I cried a little when it said it could not be used.

By a little, I mean a lot.

I’m still crying.

+1 would buy

Also bring the Electromagnetic-Descender Glider back please.. AND the golden fetahered wings.

Yeah, I’d buy a shortbow version of the Stormbow skin.

I mean, it is already the size of a shortbow despite being a longbow (wish the longbow was longer…), so I don’t see why it couldn’t be a skin unlockable for both weapons.

It seems like a fine change. Its not the first skin that would be duplicated from longbow to shortbow (pirate weapons being one of them).

+ 1 for a short bow stormbow. I’d buy it for sure.

My thief runs a similar theme too, and the Super short bow is right now the best-matching bow for her.

But the Storm Bow… ahh. Me wants.

That’s not really helpful or productive, Nova.2890. Do you have any constructive comments to add, or are you just here to insult anet?

Anyway, I’d be very happy to see a shortbow model for this, too. Longbow sees shockingly little use on my array of characters, and shortbow is at least a little more common.

Recolored to look like Fire would be cool too.

Chill out bro, we don’t take things too seriously here on the forums. Besides, that was not insulting to anyone, but a rather funny remark on how us players make moneymaking so easy for Anet sometimes.

I took this more as a light hearted jab at the people asking for the new bow, not Anet.

Yes, I certainly don’t think it should be shorter and as longbow, should be longer. I personally prefer weapons that look like weapons and not nebulous mists, but there is a terrible shortage of even passable-looking shortbows in this game. They all look really awful IMO (Exalted Shortbow excepted), and I think Anet would surely see increased sales of this item if they unlocked this skin for shortbows as well.
