Bone vs Pearlwood Bow
The verdict
With crit factored in, Bone puts out 104.0 DPS against 37.4 for Pearlwood Bow — about 178% more damage per second. Base hits are Bone 20 vs Pearlwood Bow 12, so the gap comes as much from attack speed and crit as from raw damage.
Bone swings faster at a 12-tick use time versus 20, so it lands on-hit debuffs like ichor, procs set bonuses, and reapplies knockback more often — an edge the flat DPS figure understates.
For crowd control, Bone hits with more knockback (2.3 vs 0), keeping enemies at range while you reposition.
Both are Ranged weapons, so the same armor set and class accessories buff either one — you can swap between them without rebuilding your loadout.
