Taralash

Taralash +4 is an enchanted longbow. It wieghs 2 lbs, has a speed factor of 3 and it offers a bonus to THACO of -4. It also increases the movement speed of the wielder by 2 points. The bow can be upgraded by Cespenar for some gold and it requires the Bowstring of Gond. But if party members are using the other items which require the bowstring for an upgrade, using it for this weapon might not be best choice. This item appears in Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal and Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition.

It's not known where this bow can be acquired.

In-game description (before upgrade)
"Taralash was a hunter reknowned for his ability to track down even the fleetest of quarry by foot. Few animals ever escaped once he had them in the sights of his mighty longbow."

Upgraded
Taralash +5 now offers a THACO bonus of -5, has a speed factor of 2 and it weighs only 1 lbs. The bonus to movement speed is still the same.

In-game description (before upgrade)
"The magical bowstring of Gond makes even the legendary longbow of Taralash more accurate and powerful."
