I think it's called a "Fletcher"

[Aventori]

i still find it to be rather dumb using a bow in melee. that is unless there can be an animation the removes the string so that it looks somewhat like a really curvy sabre. <-- like you said. Although i don't think is this thread is ment for discussing the melee bow, but rather letting a craftsmen be a "Fletcher" correct me if im wrong but if you think they should implement a melee bow, make another thread in requests?
