Ive seen ppl using legendary bows and they fire one after the other with now reload timer, i dont think its rapid fire as they were sitting there shooting a arti mob for 5 mins.

But if i get a legendary bow, for a level 24, will it fire fast like that?

All bows should fire the same depending on bow speed, shouldn't be any exceptions to my knowedge at least, if it were a higher lvl BG, then I'd maybe think of Volley due to it having no draw animation and arrow spam in a row.

there is a draw ani but its like draw-shoot-draw-shoot-draw-shoot

rather than draw-wait 3 seconds-shoot-draw-wait 3 seconds-shoot

i dnt wanna waste money on a bow that will be useless

Nothing in the way for using rapid fire for 5 mins given you have the endurence and arrows for it...

With rapid fire I shoot about 2 arrows in 3 sec, with a normal drawtime of 3sec and critshot of 4sec... unbuffed... With Legendary Bows I have 3sec normal, 3 sec crit reload time... Dragon bow I had 2 sec normal and 2sec crit, didnt test rapid fire...

But thats at level 50, with 45+14 bow

the speed you shoot is based on your quickness. the bg i imagine your talking about is a /20 where they cant get rapid fire

its probably lagg or you did not see it correctly

no. your quickness isnt even close to the level 50 quickness of a scout. Also you prolly have no archery-speed item.

They where most likely rapidfiring; no problem to do that for 5 mins; if you swoot at 1.5 spd you fire 45 arrows/minute or 180 arrows in 5 mins. No big deal for a level 50 char with money.

Endurance might be a problem; but a paladin solves that. Or a Bow of the Gale which procs a 40% end. restore.

guys, am I the only one who understood him correctly?

He's talking about a scout that he has seen in ToA area that was farming Artifact mobs. That scout was probably lvl 50 with full ToA suit, capped +qui, probably using some haste charge and having 10% archery speed. Now he thought that the legendary bow was causing him to shoot that fast and he asks that if he uses a legendary bow in thid, wether he can shoot as fast as that lvl 50 guy or not. Now the answer is no, it doesnt depend on the legendary bow. It depends on several things like the speed of the bow you're using, your quickness, wether you've got haste buff or not and wether you're using rapid fire or regular shot and your ToA + archery speed bonus. In thidranki you can't have nearly as much quickness and toa archery speed bonus as that lvl 50 guy you've seen so you can never shoot as fast as that guy who was farming arti mobs.

hope it's clear now ;)
