Composite Longbows are like normal longbows, but the staves are made of two different materials, giving greater flexibility, requiring more strength and giving a bonus to damage of +2 (Baldur's Gate) or +1 in (Baldur's Gate II) and increases the chance of hitting the target, +1 bonus to THAC0. This bow can no longer be used by bards, and it requires 18 Strength to draw the bow. Like longbows, this weapon can also be used to fire enchanted and normal arrows.
