Fiel has it specifically labled as 'Bowmen Only' now, so unless Nexon screwed up twice in both naming the item and placing it in the appropriate class category, it's for an archer.

If it is a bowman, it will be curious on how they'll approach it given changes to archers. I never thought that they would release an archer legend at the same time as revamping archers in general, it seemed counter-productive to the goal; many archers would likely just make the legend rather than return to their revamped archer. A wasted revamp, profit v. time-wise. Time will tell, I suppose.

Valarie did talk about a "Master" of the Nautilus as well as more powerful weapons. So it's possible they could be talking about that. Yeah i understand that the "Master" could be Kyrin but just to put that into peoples minds.

About the only other interesting thing I can say about this weapon is that it must be two-handed. All weapons that are at and above weapon type 140, so far, have been two-handed. Everything between 130 and 139 are one-handed. I see no reason not to continue the paradigm.

[1.2.133] Archer Jump! - Fiel - 2011-05-25

AHA! Bingo! They included pictures of the weapon. I'll post them.

No. They put in place holder images all the time for weapons, equips, items, etc. It's just to start putting the data into the game.

edit
Looks like the dualbow is just a crossbow made to shoot two arrows

[1.2.133] Archer Jump! - Sarah - 2011-05-25

Those look disgusting.

This. The only way I see this working is attaching both bows perpendicularly like a cross to give more power to the arrow with 2 strings (It would look much like piercing's charging animation) . Even this way I am not sure how the design would need to be to keep it aesthetic while still somewhat realistic. otherwise I am totally against this idea.

Stupid Nexon, if you want the archer legend to stand out, why don't you focuz on it's gameplay instead something like its weapon?. The idea of making the asrcher legend like Kid Icarus is great, fast mobility and both melee and ranged attacks, something that fits more when you think speed is something both actual legends share.

On the other hand, this could be just a mistake from Nexon's on calling it a bow and not a gun, and they might be planning to give the actual gunner adventurers a second gun to increase their skills, as part of their update. I think I'd prefer that,

[1.2.133] Archer Jump! - Dudewitbow - 2011-05-25

so it is dual loaded crossbows. this is going to be interesting

[1.2.133] Archer Jump! - ShanghaiDizzy - 2011-05-25

Y'know, I just noticed this.

Part of "Stab" animation:

Part of "Swing" animation:

That's a dual bow...? Guess it's just a crossbow gun...

Spoiler

And here I thought it was gonna be something special.

[1.2.133] Archer Jump! - SwordStaker - 2011-05-25

Well it'll be interesting. Thats only 1 bow so will be interesting.

Unless they ran out of room. Wait, is that even possible now?

*counts*

Dagger, Wand, Staff, 1H Sword, 1H Blunt Weapon, 1H Axe, Katara (does that even count as one?)... Yeah, they didn't run out of room.

EDIT: Ew.

[1.2.133] Archer Jump! - Worthyness - 2011-05-25

lol they look like crap xD

There's still plenty of room

130 = 1H Sword
131 = 1H Axe
132 = 1H BW
133 = Dagger
134 = Katara
137 = Wand
138 = Staff
139 = Barehands

I'm gonna make an assumption that those aren't the actual weapon. Those are just models. A base to work upon, if you will.

It'll probably look better as time goes on.

[1.2.133] Archer Jump! - byakugan - 2011-05-25

Ok those crossbow guns look infinitely stupid. I know those might just be lvl 10 weapons and there might be better looking ones but... I just freaking dislike this stupid Dual bow concept... The only shiet that has to do with a bow is that the string is held vertically... and it shots arrrows DUH... for the rest is just a freaking crossbow mixed with a gun.

WE ALREADY GOT WILD HUNTERS USING CROSSBOWS, HECK EVEN THE WILD HUNTER MASTER ALREADY USES ONE OF THOSE (see wild hunter artwork). THE ARCHER LEGEND SHOULD BE LIKE KID ICARUS... NOT A FÙCKING VAN HELSING CLONE.

To be fair, they chose a really crappy color scheme for this particular weapon. But now I'm thinking back to that picture of that new girl and the buildings in the background. They seem to fit in with the buildings, at least.

I suppose it's time for me to post my modified Archer Legend idea in the Maple Additions section, before I never get a chance to do it.

[1.2.133] Archer Jump! - Dudewitbow - 2011-05-25

i'd be nice if W could switch to weapons like these in an update, and change the WH skills. Would make WH different than the other two, but would make any WH with a good Xbow mad. Though it peaks my interest on whatever job is going to use these weapons, and i don't need to completely buy new armor since i have bowman armor already.

[1.2.133] Archer Jump! - Venomous - 2011-05-25

Willing to be anyone here 10k nx that Nexon slaps a shadow partner skill and/or flash jump on this new class.

The colors are fine. Remember archers are always related to wind and nature and those 2 colors + the wing and vine bow parts reflect that. But seriously Nexon, why gun-crossbows? Why not the perpendicular double bow idea? why not soul bows (not soul arrows) summoned with runes from your wrist ? Why not a bow that can be split in two for melee combat and put back together for ranged combat?...

I know it is too early to complain but seeing those images pretty much tells they are done with the concept. oh well...
