Notes
This bow possesses truly extraordinary DPS at the cost of having the same range as tiered daggers. In spite of this, it only fires 1 shot, keeping its true range at 5.6 tiles, which is higher than most tiered bows and the Coral Bow, allowing it to do more consistent damage from a safer distance.

It outdamages all bows except for the Nectar Crossfire below ~5 DEF, the Bow of Mystical Energy below ~9 DEF, the Bow of Deep Enchantment below ~33 DEF, the Predator Bow below ~57 DEF, the Doom Bow above ~155 DEF, and the Bergenia Bow above ~76 DEF.

The main tradeoffs are that it has lower overall range than most other bows, its shots alternate left and right which makes it hard to aim, and it is a rare drop from the end-game Void Entity, making it hard to obtain and replace if lost. In spite of the disadvantages, the bow can be used as an effective main bow where the user is comfortable with the shorter range.
