Q:
Just curious, what’s the range on thief’s shortbow? Also, is there a trait that increases shortbow’s range? Thanks
A:
The range for all SB skills for a thief is 900 except for Cluster Bomb (skill 2) which is 1200 range. No, there isn’t a trait to increase the range of the shortbow.
Ok thanks. How much does cluster bomb hit, say as a pure glass cannon?
Clusterbomb does great damage (I don’t have the number on me, sorry).
Unfortunately, its 1200 range is misleading. The arrows have an extremely slow arch to them causing most shots that aren’t to or from high ground, or close range to miss. You also can’t fire a second clusterbomb until the first has detonated, further making it worse at range.
In other words, clusterbomb’s best use is as a large AoE melee weapon, and not for long range power.
hits 5k+ as glass cannon i think.
