The Venator bow is a two-handed bow that requires level 80 Ranged and fires arrows. It has +90 Ranged attack and +25 Ranged strength. When charged with ancient essence, its arrows bounce between monsters in multi-combat areas, so players use it for killing groups of monsters. Players can compare it in the ::bis interface.

It attacks every 6 ticks (5 on Rapid) and has an attack range of 6 (8 on Longrange).
Effect
Each normal attack the charged bow makes against a monster bounces on to a random attackable target standing next to it (or, if there is none, one tile further away), as long as that target is in a multi-combat area. The bounce rolls a new hit against the new target and deals 75% of it. The first bounce can bounce once more, so one attack can deal up to three hits.
Charges
- The bow is charged by using ancient essence on it. Each attack uses 1 essence, and it holds up to 50,000.
- When it runs out of charges it turns back into the Venator bow (uncharged), which keeps the same stats but has no bounce. Uncharge returns all stored essence.
- You can only own one charged Venator bow.
- If you are killed by another player, the stored essence always goes to the killer and the bow becomes uncharged, even if you keep it.
- Ancient essence costs 1 PK point each in the PK Point Shop or 2 skilling points each in the Herblore Shop.
How to get it
The bow is obtained uncharged:
- Slayer Shop: 1,000 Slayer points.
- Divine slayer impling jars (see Impling).
- Other players on the Trading post.
