Thought to ask the wider ranger population on your thoughts!
Which is a better bow?
Dragonlord Bow
Piercing damage: 155
Attack Speed: 2860
Proc Skill: Divine Strike
Proc Chance: 5%
Attack:350
Or
Bow of Despoiler
Piercing Damage: 170
Attack Speed: 3250
Ranged Combat: 300
Additional 400 Longshot Damage
I use both damage skills Longshot and Double Shot. All other factors are common just the woundering on your thoughts on the bows themselves!!

Idk. I think its more a question of necessity. I for one, use dl bow. Not that i have a despoiler bow at my disposal but i do not seek to get one. I do however have a dark necro bow and even still use dl bow. Imo that 350 attk is crucial. If you use long shot regularly and have a high enough attk go with despoiler except maybe on chaos mobs go with dl.

For mobs with a chaos aura I'd use dragonlord but for others I'd choose despoiler.

When you cast Longshot use Despoiler bow and then quickly switch to DL bow. Problem solved

If the auto formula hasn't changed yet, DL bow outdps any other bow (except godly frost bow IIRC) due to attack speed. This proves true even if you are hasting.

DL bow >>> Despoiler imo.
Divine strike + higher melee (I think, dont remember) + faster.
The godly frost bow is prob better although the divine strike is very useful (2k divine dmg proc), and theres necro bow too.

DL bow even tho lesser pierce it still is better since its faster and it has proc chances on top of that
