There are two longbows for which the items descriptions are missing info about the "extra damage" component:
Swordbow
+3 EB
+1d4 Fire Damage
+10 Hit Points
Extra ranged damage: Slashing = ?
Bonecrusher Longbow +3
+3 EB
+4 Mighty
Extra ranged damage: Bludgeoning = ?
Can anyone provide some intel on how much slashing damage the Swordbow inflicts?
And how much bludgeoning damage the Bonecrusher does?

Re: Missing Stats for Two Longbows
Hu.. Is it? I always assumed it means that the longbow does piercing as well as slashing/blunt damage... Which would mean that a creature with resistant to either would be resistant to your damage.. I saw it as a type of nerf, not a buff.

Re: Missing Stats for Two Longbows
It can be a double edged sword. Certain monsters might have a resistance like "Bludgeon 25%," and if your weapon has bludgeon damage type added to it it will indeed apply. It can definitely be quite good in a few situations (bludgeon damage on piercing/slashing weapons in particular for dealing with skeletons comes to mind).
