"'The Men of the  Sea,' it was said, 'send before them a great cloud, as a rain turned to serpents, or a black hail tipped with steel;' and in those days the great cohorts of the King's Archers used bows made of hollow steel, with black-feathered arrows a full ell long from point to notch. "

Mae govannen, mellyn, and well met! This suggestion concerns one of the most feared weapons in all of Middle-earth: the Steelbows of the Archers of Westernesse.

These bows would be found very, very rarely in Gondorian houses in the Pelennor and Dol Amroth, as well as Numenorean Ruins. They would naturally be uncraftable, but would be terrifying on the field of battle. Their range would be 190%, and their damage 8-15, but their draw time would be 35-40 ticks, since this bow is massive and deadly.

These bows would also, due to their size, only work with a unique arrow type. Called the Numenorean Arrow, they would be found everywhere the Steelbows are found, but somewhat more commonly. They might possibly be craftable with a black feather, blackroot, and some iron, but that's up to the discretion of the mod team.
