its strings conneceted to a hole in the bottom and wrapped around the wood on the top. Strangely enough, the actual nocked arrow has no arrow head.

Starting to think its just a fancy bow, even if archer gets a bard job, making a new weapon for it is a bad idea, it would invalidate all re existing archer weapons, because they dont have a bow. and since i doubt they are going to make a whole bunch of bowharps from level 20-50, or make a job transition into a class that it cant play because of lack pf weapons. Its probably just a fancy bow with no harp utility at all.

not saying archer wont be a bard or that it will, but im pretty sure its just a non functional fancy weapon
