Nord Bow

This bow shall find its target with a golden precision.

Nord Bow is a bow with no bench recipe of its own: Cast: Nord Bow is poured at a level 4 Black Forge from 20 Bloodgold, 10 Timberwood and one Mould: Nord Bow, then hardened into the finished weapon at a Frost Foundry, which burns Liquid Frost for 50 seconds to do it. It adds 100 pierce and 10 spirit to whatever arrow it fires, and it trains Bows. Reaching a full draw takes 2.5 seconds. Its spirit damage climbs 12 a level against 8 for pierce, so a quality 4 bow carries 46 spirit, well past what either essence version keeps.

How it's made

No bench makes this outright. The station recipe below only upgrades it; the piece itself is cast from a mould and hardened at a Frost Foundry.

2. Pour the cast at a level 4 Black Forge
3. Harden it at the Frost Foundry

50 seconds burning Liquid Frost turns the cast into the finished Nord Bow. Upgrades then happen at the Black Forge, level 5 and up.

Listed at the Black Forge for upgrades only; the base amounts are what the cast above already cost. Per-level costs are in the table below.

Past quality 4, the Forge of Potential will take it one level further for 1 Bloodgold Battle Idol plus 45 Bloodgold and 22 Timberwood. No other station asks for the idol.

Each quality level adds 20 damage and 50 durability. Quality 2 costs the per-level amount, quality 3 twice that and quality 4 four times, so the last level is more than half of the total.
