I have tried
Drake Wing Bones
Small Groove Nocks
Girplan Feathers
various condence arrowheads

got DNC

looking for the highest damage/longest range combo

I think the +13 arrow will result in generally higher DPS than the previous best arrows, the 11+4 tunare or karana arrows, or the Luclin condensed arrows. So I am eager to make one.

[Astroshak]

Andhyre, that depends on the resists of the mobs you're fighting.

In PoFire, I'd expect the 11+3Ice arrow would outperform a base 13 damage arrow, because the mobs there tend to be weak to Ice. I'd expect that, for the average xp mob, barring any special resistances (or lack thereof) a 13 damage arrow would generally perform as well as, but no better than, a 11+4 arrow of either type.

There is one other... Erolissi Thorn Barbed Arrow.

Not a **** clue if this is dropped, made, or given.. but you can find it in the /buyer window of the new barter zone... which leads me to believe that it's a real item, just needs to be found.

[Astroshak]

Aye, I'm keeping my eye open for any info on that one. Not found anything though, so far

Class 7 Drakebone Drakespike Arrow

This arrow does NOT have DMG Bonus 15

[Ravenswood]

Because those bonuses are level depedent (ie, you won't see the full 15 until level 70), they will not show up in magelo or on lucy. A level 70 puppet viewing the arrow in-game however, will see a 15 DAM Bonus.

[Greymantle]

And since damage bounus only apply to main hand weapons, not to secondary or range its moot anyway.

[Cenebi]

If that is true, why would they even bother adding the code for damage bonuses on ranged weapons? Just seems like unnecessary effort if you ask me.

updated info: Rumor is this arrow is dropped in instanced encounters in The Nest. At least that's what i've been hearing ni serverwide.ranger

[Towd]

Per Sony, the Erolissi arrow is not obtainable in game.
