This maneuver deals damage to Poise. Performing this maneuver halves your remaining movement this turn.

    Similar in appearance when strung to the Recurve Bow, the Composite Longbow uses a straight-limbed design that is generally quieter than the Recurve Bow and boasts longer range than its smaller cousin. It is easier to use overall.
