Unfortunately we're still not seeing good 2-60-2.70 bows, while there are some guns or crossbows.
For a tight Steady/Auto-Shot macro, speed matters a lot. I'll explain:

--------------------------------------
------------------------------------
The above lines are your Auto-Shot cast bar with Steady Shot cast bar underneath it.

Auto-Shot must not be 'clipped' - leave it alone, so to say. You fit a Steady Shot in between your Auto-Shots.
That's a basic Shot Rotation, and a very effective one for BM hunters.

Now.. let's say those lines represent a 2.70 speed bow. Now look what happens if you've got a 3.00 bow:

------------------------------------------
------------------------------------

This means you cast less Steady Shots. And that means less DPS. This also means that, just to take some numbers out of thin air, a 2.70 bow with 50 DPS may well be a better choice for you than a 3.00 bow with 55 DPS. So if you want to follow a strict shot rotation, be ready to think twice about a few things. Pick up a few cheap bows with different speeds, pay dr. Boom a visit, you'll notice speed matters a lot.

This item's name was changed from "Ancient Sin'dorei Longbow" to "Ancient Amani Longbow" in patch 2.3.2. The following is my original comment, which may help explain why it was renamed.

It would have been more accurate to name this "Ancient Quel'dorei Longbow" as the name sin'dorei has only been in use for a few years.

As for those of you pointing out use of "sin'dorei" in Lament of the Highborne, it was written originally for Night Elves several millennia ago. As lead composer Russel Brower stated, it was a lament to fallen Night Elves, and a tribute to those whose bravery remained steadfast against overwhelming odds. (source) It has been modified from using "kal'dorei" to "sin'dorei." There are no known elves who were referred to as sin'dorei before the Third War.

No, the Sin'Dorei are what the Quel'dorei began to call themselves *after* the Sundering. The High Elves were called always called Quel'dorei.

Is anyone else disappointed in the graphic of this bow? It's the same as the bow from heroic SV.

Don't see a drop info yet - is this one from the timed run or normal boss loot? And of which boss in ZA?

Комментарий от Llyrian

This bow is also a very good option for fury warriors.
At 38 AP, this offers the most AP available in a ranged slot besides Tuskbreaker.

The armor penetration is also a very solid statistic to have in a ranged item.

This item will be re-skinned and renamed in patch 2.3.2

Thank god it's being remodelled, the old sting ray design is trash and this looks way more unique

Комментарий от 106818

This bow is now called "Ancient Amani Longbow"

Комментарий от 98469

does the armor pen affect melee attacks?

Комментарий от 80343

Yessir, which makes it an excellent choice for warriors / rogues

Комментарий от ThyFlame

Currently the best, or at least tied for one of the best, ranged weapons for Fury Warriors. Tuskbreaker is a close third.

Since patch 2.3.2 it has been renamed "ancient amani longbow" and the graphics and icon have changed, stats are still the same.

Комментарий от 61546

Huge disappointment considering the other weapons off Zul'jin are ilevel 138 and this is a lowly 132 (the only Zul'jin drop of any kind to be below 133). Hope this gets buffed to ilevel 138 soon but there's nothing in the patch notes about that yet. If it doesn't get buffed... then I will have a very nice looking bow that will forever collect dust in my bank after I save enough badges for the new badges crossbow.

The Ancient Amani Longbow, according to the damage calculations done by Cheeky's Spreadsheet (http://www.havoc-guild.us/Cheeky/), out damages the Crossbow of Relentless Strikes which has seemingly become the token Hunter weapon of choice in the past month.

It is in fact second only to the Bristleblitz Striker from Archimonde in terms of progression, largely due to it's Armor Ignore (usually called Armor Pen), as that can be the highest stable DPS gain for a Hunter. With a few other pieces such as Angelista's Ring, S3 Axe (or dual Dagger's of Bad Mojo), etc .. a Hunter can see a 300+ DPS increase on a Boss w/ 5 Sunder Armors on it.

This bow is worth investing in for most Hunters in the game, even those on a long waiting list for Archimonde's bow.

With pure AP and ArP this bow seems decent as a DPS stat stick for rogues and fury warriors, especially since the badge bow is 150 badges (besides being pure win for hunters, the badge bow is a great stat stick for every physical dps class). No stm also means more stat points to allocate to the DPS stats.

The bow's stats are flexible for melee since both classes benefit from the AP as opposed to one or the other benefiting more from the bow if it had stat points allocated to str (war) or agi (rogue) instead, and for melee the slow speed doesn't make a lick of difference.

The slow speed actually makes it more attractive to me as a Melee DPS stat stick since most hunters don't want something so slow anyway, even with haste gear, and will probably pass.

i'm glad they changed his graphics, previous one was really ugly

I recently got this bow of Zul'jin in ZA, and I'm unsure if this bow will be a downgrade or upgrade in terms of DPS compared to https://www.wowhead.com/cata/item=28772 as a MM hunter.

Could anyone explain to me if this will be a upgrade or downgrade in terms of DPS?

R.I.P Yet another awesome looking bow. Will no longer drop from 4.1 It used to drop from the final raid boss in ZA named Zul'jin.

However

If you scored one before it retired, and still have it in your bank, you'll be able to transmogrificate it .

Ode to the bow I adore.....

You were dropped just for me,
when I was young & full of glee.
But too soon you needed replacing,
my refusal made my guildies hearts a racing.
I practically glued you to my hand,
which only got me guild progression run banned.

I skipped with you around the city,
not noticing the looks of pity.
But the dark day came and I put you in my bank,
where I worried about you getting old and rank.

I won't lie others tried to take your place,
please believe me that was not the case.
So I lead this rather empty awesome life,
like a really pampered nice smelling flashy trophy wife.
But there was always something missing,
just like Mojo without any kissing.

Then the powers that be did something fantastic,
some say a little drastic.
They granted me the power to TRANSMORG!
... & off I dash to get it done in Org.

I now have back the bow I adore,
knowing our love story will be one of lore.
Once again we walk hand in hand,
and I think to myself 'life is rather grand'.

.... so yeah, like you can transmorg it and that is a really really really good thing.

Update: le sigh.... le groan in 5.2PTR there is a new green bow which now looks like the original. is a dead ringer... I have mixed feelings because I like being a special snowflake however as it is my favourite bow in all the lands I'm happy new players now have a chance to look as marvellous as I do (lol)

Комментарий от Linera

I still have this bow. Since its no longer in game I'll never get rid of it.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Possibly equal to the new Xbow from the Sunwell Badges. the AP and the Armor Penetration may tie DPS with the Xbow's Crit.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Personally i think this bow would be ideal for a marksman hunter, slow attack speed combined with a 15% increase from quiver sets it at about 2.5 speed which should fit in with the steady shot kill command autoshot rotation and leave in just enough room for a slight bit of lagg. these are just my thoughts

With all the Attack Speed Gear which drops in ZA, I got a pretty good Attack Speed with the 3.0 Bow and combined with much Attack Power you deal damn much damage without too much aggro.

Комментарий от Allakhazam

Damage wise this bow isn't that good for hunters, 2.6/2.7 speed would be more favorable for a tight steady shot rotation. The stats on it are very good however, and would be great in the hands of a warrior or a rogue (for pve damage, anyway).
