Willow composite bow

The Willow composite bow is a composite bow that can use arrows up to mithril arrows that require level 20 Ranged to use. To obtain a willow composite bow, the player can only either complete a Treasure trail, trade with another player, or buy one from the Grand Exchange; the willow composite bow cannot be made using the Fletching skill. This bow is currently the only composite bow available for free players.

Note that the maple shortbow and longbow offer better ranged offensive bonuses; however, the bow is regarded a status symbol to Free-to-play players due to its rarity and price (it is the most expensive non-degrading bow available to free players as of 28 January 2010). It is also more expensive than both the yew composite and magic composite bows even though it is weaker. F2P players consider this weapon rare since it is rarely used and is also quite expensive, even though the price crashed from 70k to just 25k. Being a treasure trail item, this bow is much desired by F2P players and is an attractive alternative for members.
