Shining Bow

Concept art of a Bright Bow fromPath of Radiance.

Magic weapon. Cannot make critical hits or trigger offensive skills.

Type	Bow
First game	Fire Emblem Fates (Path of Radiance as anunused item)

TheShining Bow (Japanese:シャイニングボウShining Bow), also known as theBright Bow (Japanese:ブライトボウBright Bow), is amagic bow which made its first legitimate appearance inFire Emblem Fates, although it is also present inan unused state inFire Emblem: Path of Radiance. It useslight magic to attack at both the standard bow long range and, unlike ordinary bows, at close range. Its attacks are fuelled by the unit'smagic stat and target the foe'sresistance, instead ofstrength anddefense. However,Fates gives it several drawbacks, in that it is unable to dealcritical hits and also prevents the user'soffensive skills from activating.

Trivia

Path of Radiance hasleftover text strings for a second unused magic bow in addition to the Bright Bow. The actual text for it calls it the "Sonic Bow", but its file name labels it "SHININGBOW", the name eventually used for theFates magic bow.
The Bright Bow's unique ability to attack at 1-2 range inPath of Radiance would later be used for theDouble Bow inRadiant Dawn.
