Examine	The dark bow just got darker!

The strykebow is the strongest shieldbow in the game which requires 85 Ranged and 85 Defence to wield. Making a strykebow requires combining a dark bow with a wyrm scalp, which is a unique drop from the Lava strykewyrm and the WildyWyrm and will have an initial charge of 20% upon creation. The Strykebow will last 10 hours in combat and will leave you with the wyrm scalp on degrade. A dark bow will recharge the strykebow by 20%.

It is the Ranged equivalent of the staff of darkness and lava whip. It is also the only shieldbow outside of Daemonheim to give a life point bonus.

Passive Effect

The strykebow has a passive effect where it stores how much damage the player has received since initiating combat or since the bow was equipped; this will reset if another weapon is worn. After 15 attacks (five shots in Legacy Mode) with the bow, 10% of the damage received overall will be released in the form of a second arrow shot, however there are caps which apply to this storage mechanic:

• At 50k damage, the incoming damage will be halved before it is stored.
• At 70k damage, the incoming damage will be divided by 10 before it is stored.
• At 80k damage, no more incoming damage will be stored.

Special Attack

The strykebow has a special attack that will fire out an arrow which will trap the opponent in a column of fire requiring 25% adrenaline to use. 12.5% of the stored damage will then be released in the form of a rapid damage over time attack that will last for 4.8 seconds.
