| Base mana | 25 |
| Availability | Available on current weapon types |
Requirements#
- Requires the equipped weapon’s assigned primary/secondary slot, normally 70/90 base weapon skill and (unless overridden below) 70/90 base Tactics. Use Best Weapon Skill can satisfy the weapon threshold with base Swords, Macing or Fencing.
- Requires Poisoning base skill 60, in addition to normal weapon and Tactics skill thresholds.

- Applies ordinary poison without consuming a weapon poison charge. Within two tiles, poison level uses effective Archery + Poisoning: >199.8 gives level 3, >170.2 level 2, >130.2 level 1, otherwise level 0. At greater range, level 0 is used.

| Elven Composite Longbow | Secondary | Current source assignment |
Notes#
- The thresholds use strict greater-than comparisons. The victim’s normal poison immunity applies.
- Base mana is reduced by the shared ability skill-total discount and Lower Mana Cost rules; a second paid ability within the three-second cooldown costs double.
