i made some tests with my lv 25 archer (25 spr ) with both sun bow and sun xbow.

I killed a lot of mara pirate of many type and calculated the average damage of both weapon.

Not so high difference like i was thinking but still xbow >> bow for DPS with regular hit.

But if u add the crits (not on skill, just regolar hit) too the difference is clear. Xbow > bow.

So as far i've seen bow dont kill faster than xbow. Viceversa is true.

U can get green bow with crit % same as the base xbow, but there are xbow with even more crit (like 8%). Same for base atk. There is sun bow, but there is sun xbow too.... plus xbow with his higher damage get more bonus on enchant.

Bow is good for kitting ( "hit, run, hit, run,hit, run" and not "skil, run 4 skill to recharge, skill") and for the good looking sprite.
The Aim too, but there are aim scroll on that purpose.
