    Hi,
    So I am curious, what are the actual differences between the Xen Bow and the Envy Bow. I see the envy bow has an improved STR bonus, which makes it hit like a truck. I haven't used a XEN bow yet, is it that much better? I can enchant my envy bow up to +10 or so. My current has 3 masterworks +30 durability, +8.4 Str and +3.3 Crit chance and 2 Enchants .3.4 Dex and 6,2 dex. Using the Air/tactics build on a squishey target, i can crit for just under 1300 points. Is Xen worth the xtra million gold?

    From what I've seen, Envy bow also has a 3x crit multiplier instead of 2x, as a hidden stat.

    For Xen, what I heard was that it has a better Strength modifier than any bow out there, which makes a HUGE difference.

    Wow, so that would be a huge difference . Is anyone using a Xen, who has also used an envy? I would like to hear a 1st hand account.

    Wait how does one masterwork and enchant an artifact? I thought they were kind of as is?
