Crystal Bow or Crystal Shield?

moonshadow56 · **Posted:** August 30th, 2005, 7:16 pm

I am about to finish "Roving elves" quest (In the morning) and I was wondering which one I should choose. What are the pros and cons of each. My stats are in my sig, and I can use both the shield and the bow.

Thanks for any advice.

It really depends, if you are a die hard ranger get the bow. If not get the shield. Remember that you have to pay to fix them every so often.

probably better to get the bow. when you get enough cash get a d square cuz the crystal shield isn't as good as the dragon

I say get the bow. The sheild is worthless basicly its stats are horrible basicly. A rune kite has wa betters stats then it accpet in range defence.

~get the bow if u want to p00n in range

~get the sheild for nice range defence

~in the end u can get both the bow and sheild just buy another crystal seed and recharge it. assuming if the seed u bought from a player was a former sheild or bow.

Bow. The sheild sucks anyway.

Thanks for helping me make up my mind (Bow), I'm about to finish it.

The shield is only better then drag square when it's fully charged, although a shield would last a LOT longer then a bow, i would rather use the bow.

You hit better than rune arrows, and the price per shot eventually goes down to about 75gp per shot if you charge it lots.
