Uh... ok.
Occam's razor, dude. It's got 4, maybe 5 strings, and it's on a bow. "A harp" is about the least possible thing it could be. Immersion has nothing to do with it lol.

has anyone thought that perhaps the metal bar connecting the bow and the harp may be hiding the 5th string -_- the shit's not even out yet man stop the QQ and wait for 1.2 then cry. please.
yeah edited post to reflect my initial ignorance of the fourth string, corrected that :P but here :p

idk how to make links into a few words sorry bout that..
though it may in fact not be a bow harp, i think yall are mistaking something, it doesnt need to be a "harp" if its a stringed instrument attached to a bow, its enough for a "bard" This is a dfferent world the instruments dont need to mirror ours, in fact their should be differences.

look at the variety in one world.
That said it still could just be a stylized bow
not to mention when has any bard class wielded a 15-40 string harp? like wdf why would you even WANT to bring that into a battle? xD
