Type Bow First game Heroes

Arcane Darkbow (Japanese: 魔器・優しさの影弓 Magic vessel · kind shadow bow) is a weapon skill in the bow category which debuted in Fire Emblem Heroes; it is borne by the rearmed variation of Alcryst. When its user's HP is not low, Arcane Darkbow boosts their attack and speed, neutralizes the user's penalties and effects that prevent their follow-up attacks, and if the user initiated combat, allows the user to follow up before the foe counters.
