<!-- END QBE -->The {{name}} is a moderately accurate, mid-tier bow. Similarly to the {{favilink|Linear cannon}}, it requires an [[:Category:Energy Cells|energy cell]] to function.

The {{name}} can be:
* Found as random loot in [[zone tier|mid-to-high-tier zones]] or occasionally equipped by random creatures.
* Obtained as a [[faction heirloom]] during [[The First Council of Omonporch]] if the player's chosen faction has an heirloom type of ''rifles''. Refer to the [[faction heirloom]]s page for details about the chance of obtaining a {{name}}.{{Code Reference|class=SpindleNegotiation}}<ref><code>PopulationTables.xml</code></ref>
* Crafted with the [[Tinker II]] skill, after obtaining the required [[schematic]].
* [[Disarmed]] from {{favilink|turbow turret|plural}}.
 
== Considerations ==
{{Opinion}}
* Can be an extremely effective ranged weapon for high-strength characters during the early game.
* Has the highest damage potential of any bow, exceeding the penetration and damage potential of the {{favilink|compound bow}}.
* Has lower [[Missile_weapon_combat#Missile_Weapon_Accuracy|accuracy]] than the {{favilink|compound bow}}.
* For characters with low strength, the {{name}} will also ''lower'' an arrow's PV based on strength (but it still benefits from its unique flat +4 PV bonus).
* With high-tier ammo, can be an effective weapon even against fairly high [[AV]] targets.
* High-tier ammo is difficult to find in large supply.

Perfect

A turbow is a moderately accurate, mid-tier bow that requires an energy cell to function. When powered, it increases the penetration and damage potential of arrows. When unpowered, it cannot be fired at all.

The turbow is one of two bows, along with the compound bow, that benefits from the user's strength. More specifically, the user's strength modifier is added to the →PV of arrows fired from the bow, up to a certain limit.[1][2]

When the player loads an arrow into a turbow, the game will display the maximum strength-modified penetration that is achievable with that arrow and the turbow. For example, if a steel arrow is loaded, the display will always look like the following:

Turbow penetration display example.png

However, the actual PV will be →8, plus the wielder's strength modifier, up to the displayed limit. Thus, the actual PV is not shown in game.

Mechanics

Currently, all arrows in the game have a base penetration value of →4.[3]. When loaded into a turbow, the base penetration of any arrow is increased by 4 to →8. In addition to their base penetration, each arrow has a maximum potential strength-modified penetration cap. Higher-tier arrows have a higher potential cap for strength-modified penetration.[4][5]

Scoring a critical hit with the turbow will add a +2 bonus to its PV. [6]
