Its chance to ignite was increased by 4.5%, while its damage was increased by 20%. The Longbow was modified via a hotfix released on October 17th, 2013 as part of the Borderlands 2 Loot Hunt.The Longbow was dropped by Mister Boney Pants Guy on Day 6 of Week 1 of the Borderlands 2 Loot Hunt.These include the fire rate (Operational), damage (Auditing) and magazine size (Resource) accessories. Since the Longbow will always lack a scope, it cannot spawn with the accessories that would affix to the scope.Unlike standard legendary or E-tech weapons, the Longbow can spawn without an accessory, giving it the prefix Thermogenic.The Longbow's status as an E-tech weapon is also evident in inventories, where the weapon will be grouped with E-tech weapons rather than with legendary weapons. Although it is displayed as a legendary weapon, the Longbow is internally classified as an E-tech weapon, with a barrel part, SR_Barrel_Alien_Longbow.Evidence of this can be shown as the rifle itself has very minimum movement when the sights are aimed down. A major advantage of the Longbow is its extreme accuracy firing may not actually increase accuracy. When auto-targeting is turned on in the options menu, the snap-to targeting places the arc of the Longbow's projectile immediately at a standard humanoid enemy's head. The parabolic arc of the arrows means that aim will need adjustment to compensate for the arc of the arrow.

The lack of a scope makes the Longbow primarily suitable for close to mid-range combat. Slightly increased (+4.5%) chance of ignition (as of hotfix of 17 October 2013). Fires slow-moving, Minecraft styled arrows that have a parabolic trajectory. Ceci n'est pas une sniper rifle! – Always incendiary.
