Ive only completed the quest on my lvl 47 (56 archery) and the damage was like 20, is this normal? and can i increase it a lot or not? I would hate to waste such a unique bow
Yes I think this is normal because my level 55 character (80 archery) has only about 36 base damage. I think the lack in raw attack is made up with the secondary effects (which I think are AWESOME)
As a level 47 with 100 archery, all the damage perks, legendary smithing upgrade, and a circlet that increases archery by 40%, it does around 112 damage for me.
I'm starting to wonder myself, is Auriel's bow a leveled item or is it static? 27 Damage seems a little weak for a bow of such legend, although I only have 40 archery I have found that ebony bows far outclass it in raw damage.
