About Ophidian Cultist Bow
Ophidian Cultist Bow is an Epic Bow in Conan Exiles. It deals 18 light damage, 18 heavy damage, and 8.1% armor penetration. Its damage scales with Agility. It is a Tier 1 item.
Ophidian Cultist Bow is a craftable weapon — it is produced at a crafting station rather than dropped by enemies. It is part of the "Black Lotus Bazaar" DLC, so players without that content cannot obtain it. Tier 1 places it in the lower band of the game's weapon progression.
Its base damage of 18 ranks #28 of 87 Bow entries tracked here. It has a modest 8.1% armor penetration, a 4-stamina cost per basic swing, 10 poise damage that helps interrupt enemies, and 1000 durability before it needs repair. At 3.33 weight it is light to carry.
A ranged option: open with a heavy draw from distance, then switch to melee once the target closes in.
Verdict: Overall Ophidian Cultist Bow is a strong pick among Bow weapons in Conan Exiles, and being craftable makes it easy to replace if it breaks.
