    Bows are a funny weapon in 1.0.

    The delay has no impact on the DPS whatsoever as Light shot is always 5 seconds so high damage, high delay bows will always be better in regards to Light shot.

    The DPS stat does still influence your weapon skill damage however so watch out for that.

    Artemis bow has a delay of 4.1 which is one of the highest in regards to a bow.
    Ifrit is 4.3, Mogbow and Giantsgall are 4.2 and Garuda is 3.1

    You do the math

    Whilst this bow has a nice DPS of 40.30 (Garuda is 40.96 to put that in persepctive) it has a very low delay of 3.3 (Garuda us 3.1) and a low damage of 77 (Garuda is 3.1).
    It's not the worst bow in the entire world but it's definately nothing on Artemis which is 41.93 DPS, 4.1 delay and 116 damage.
