Maren's Tip
Try fusing this weapon with monster parts for extra damage. Silver Lynel horns add the most attack power of any fusible material!
Description
A corrupted bow saturated with Gloom, dropped by Phantom Ganon's archer form in Depths encounters. Each arrow fired from this bow carries Gloom energy, draining a small amount of maximum hearts from targets hit — particularly devastating against elite enemies who rely on maximum HP thresholds for phase transitions. The Gloom also applies a slow debuff to affected enemies briefly after impact. Requires Gloom-resistant armor and Sundelion meals to safely wield — the residual Gloom in the bowstring drains 0.5 max hearts per draw from Link's unprotected hands. Fuse Silver Lynel Saber Horns to arrows for maximum output, or Dragon Fangs for long-range precision.
