Enchantments aside (yeah bow enchants are much more controllerish), it's still said that the +1 on attack rolls beats out the (average) +1 damage. But I've just been running a bunch of DPR tests at various levels for Twin Strike and RBAs and the Greatbow has come out on top each time. It isn't a large difference (around 5%), but it's still there in the numbers.So what DOES make the superior X bow apparently better? For the record, the into I was using:A starting 20 score in the stat, bumped every time.Weapon Expertise feat (obviously)NOT using prime shotAnd a +X ench increase after each half tier (ie: 6, 11, 16, 21 etc)The only thing I can think of is if you have a whole load of static bonuses? I've had my fill of math for the afternoon already so I'm not going to jump into it all over again loaded with all the static dmg.Thought it was interesting.</blockquote>
