They cap a 28 WW and 7 Bonecraft. I skilled up both skills with these when I was 24 WW. I also made serious gil off of these during the time of the Great Inflation when they were selling 50k apiece. Materials total cost on Shiva is 200k though, but if you can synth 12 of these without breaking you will get it all your gil back plus more. However, the HQ's don't sell often and sometimes sell for less than the non HQ because the HQ can't be used in the mog safe upgrade quest. Only low level rangers seem to want the HQ one while everyone and their mule buy the non HQ one.
i synthed a couple of these goin out on a limb as lvl 20 woodworking and 4 bonecraft. I have gotten good skillups from it, and im about 7/10 pass rate. I also used imagery support and faced south in my certain spot... i dunno its just a thing lol
I checked this damn thing on Diabolos cause I need to get it for MH expansion, like most of you looking at this. The regular version is 30k. When I did it like a year ago on my first character I bought it for 17k. Meh, I'm gonna raise bonecraft up to like 5 or so and try this.
I guess Woodworking 59.2 does come in handy after all...
Hey guys is there anybody here from the Asura server that would make me the bow for the quest, for the cost of materials? I know you wanna make a profit but help a guy out. I'm trying saving my gil right now for some armor I'm gonna need very shortly lol. Let me know next time if anybody will. My character name is darcmagik. Thanks.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure there's something wrong with the Power Bow +1 for the moogle quest, because the +1 on Alexander is going for 10k, while the non +1 is 30k... That's really crazy because now if you craft these you hope not to HQ, but then again, there's 18 normal Power Bows in stock so it might take a while to sell.
I agree, on Quetzy server there were none on Sandy AH as of this morning, materials go for 12K and they sell for 20K. 8k profit during skill up is great
Alright. I have to do everything the hard way. So my plan is to level my woodworking and bonecraft (yick) and make the damn thing. My moogle is going to be mighty pissed by the time I get this done. LOL
Yeah, no one should try this. If you can't buy the bow for 17k, you sure aren't going to get Woodworking to 28 with that. Hell, unless you farmed most of your materials, you'd be lucky to get to 8 in bonecraft with that much.

wonder if the +1 could be used in the MH expansion though. i don't wanna waste 30k then find out that it can't be, but then again, i'm kinda poor right now after lvling NIN and RNG recently so i can't even afford it ^^;
I have seen a powerbow drop before in beudeux. I had a guy help me kill the 20 quads for that mission. I remember it dropping and him asking me to pass it. Has anyone else seen this?
What are the minimum levels needed to craft this in both Woodworking and Bonecraft? I see the caps are 28 & 8, but I'ld like to try to make this, but didn't want to waste the materials until I was close in level. Also, which advanced synth support would be better, bone or wood?
thats funny b/c on Valefor the +1 version goes for approximately 6k less than the regular version =P
16k for Power Bow, 10k for Power Bow +1
I cant think of any other item that mimics this anomaly, and the reason is that Power Bow +1 cannot be used for the "give moogle a break" quest for mog house expansion (i think.. plannin on testing it tonight)
best bow til 30?? maybe you could argue that the +1 is the best bow til 30. which it is for non-RNGs. for RNGs you can get the Hunter's Longbow which is pretty much equivalent to a Power Bow +1 except that you can use it 4 levels earlier.
