Description
-----------
Sorry for my English, i hope you'll understand what I wrote here :)
I made this mod long time ago, when I try to play Skyrim as pure archer for the first time. I found experience to my liking, but vanilla bows... Well, they seemed too plain to me. So I decided to make something fancier. Something more magical, colorful and animated. So these ten fancy bows were created, all based on the vanilla bound bow.
This mod may look obsolete by now, with all that great bows, crossbows and enchanting effects mods around, but I decided to make it a small facelift and upload it on Nexus. Maybe someone will find it useful.
Detail
------
All bows have the same damage as the vanilla bows, but generally faster. Slowest bows (Acid and Blood Bows) has a speed of 0.75, which is equal to the vanilla dragonbone bow.
All bows can be enchanted.
You can make them at the forge, if you have the appropriate perks:
Ember Bow ---- Steel Smithing
Fire Bow ------ Dwarven Smithing OR Elven Smithing
Lava Bow ------ Dwarven Smithing OR Elven Smithing
Glacial Bow --- Orcish Smithing OR Advanced Armors
Winter Bow ---- Orcish Smithing OR Advanced Armors
Emerald Bow -- Ebony Smithing OR Glass Smithing
Ruby Bow ------ Ebony Smithing OR Glass Smithing
Sapphire Bow -- Ebony Smithing OR Glass Smithing
Acid Bow ------ Dragon Armor
Blood Bow ---- Dragon Armor
You can also make "Greater" version of each bow (except Acid Bow and Blood Bow). You need Dragon Armor perk to do that. Stats of the greater bows is equal to the vanilla dragonbone bow.
