I dont know about aedra beating daedra. Aedra can be killed, but daedra can only be banished.

Back on topic, go to 2:05 on this video for what I think is the dragonbone bow.

not to contradict you, you may, by all means, you may be correct, but there is at least one other possibility

i kinda do hope thats a dragon bone bow, looks nice, but it looks too... yellow for a bone item. all the bone armor looks gray and tan and well. looks like it is actually made from bones.

Well you might be correct, but according to lore from Morrowind and Daggerfall, Auriels bow is an elven longbow, and it doesn't look elven at all.

Yea, I just want some really cool looking bows that do a lot of damage. No vanilla boring, I was upset that the base damage for the Nightingale bow was less than deadric. Sad face.

hmmm. it appears you are correct. but then why the yellowed color to this seemingly new bow? it cant be dragonbone i dont think, because of previously stated reasons. bone is not so lustrous and everything dragonbone related as of yet looks like its made of bone, this bow doesnt..... maybe another new item for archery?

Yeah I see what you're saying, but to me it looks like the yellow tint is caused by the lighting. They are either outside and it's nightime or they are inside a cave, and pretty much everything in the screenshot is yellow because of the fire and I'm pretty sure there's another torch behind the character because of the shadow on his arm. Of course I'd be happier if you are right because I love playing an archer and the more bows the merrier :D

I think Jixx is right about the lighting.

There's no information I'm aware of that shows the Dragon Bone weapons as they appear in the game. However, it was confirmed during the E3 interview that Dragon Bone weapons are stronger than Daedric. Kind of makes up for the fact that the armor isn't better than Daedric.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't Dragonbone lighter than Daedric? It's been a while since I had a character who could smith it, but I always assumed the weight to be it's advantage over Daedric. At least you if you don't want to take a perk point in conditioning.

Looking forward to dragonbone weapons, they'll make a welcome addition to the weapon plaques in my houses if nothing else.

Hopefully they'll look something like ancient Nord weapons as they look totally bad-ass but are too low ranking to really use.

I'm actually quite glad the more I think about it. My main character is a Nord so I wanted him in something Nordic so I went with Dragonplate (as it looks Nordic plus it is similar built to the old Nord Trollbone armor from Morrowind days) but I wear the Rahgot Dragon Priest mask instead of the Dragonplate helmet. The trouble is I'm relying on enchanted Daedric weapons.

The dragons are different colors so the dragon scale armor should have some color to it at least.
