Hellrider Longbow

Hellrider Longbow is an uncommon +1 Longbow that grants the wielder a large bonus to Initiative and Advantage on Perception checks. It may also apply Faerie Fire to a creature on a successful attack.

This longbow was forged from the remnants of Stanislav the Silver's shield, found near the wreckage of  Castle Ravenloft some years ago.

Where to find

• Rivington X: 43 Y: -101: Sold by  Ferg Drogher near the Requisitioned Barn

Notes

•  Ferg Drogher does not sell any items (including this one) if  Shadowheart is nearby, unless she killed  The Nightsong earlier in Act Two.

Notes included from Fiendish Fire:

• Faerie Fire condition is only applied for one turn, and is removed at the start of the target's next turn, effectively being useful only on the turn it is applied.

Bugs

Bugs included from Fiendish Fire:

• While the Fiendish Fire saving throw triggers on all damage dealt by the wielder (including spells and other weapons), the effect is actually applied only if the damage originates from this specific weapon. If the target fails the save against a spell or a different melee attack, the status effect will not be inflicted.
