Heart-Seeking Bow

The Heart-Seeking Bow is an Infernal Arm that can be unlocked for 2 Chthonic Keys.

Codex entry

'...Coronacht, the so-called Heart-Seeker, is certainly the finest bow ever conceived, and wielded once by none other than Mistress Hera, who stood side by side with Zeus, on better terms back then, as they drove back the Titans under a storm of arrows and thunder. Hera since abandoned her once-warlike ways -- quite understandably, for she has greater matters to attend to now. However, Coronacht yet yearns for further bloodshed. That it shall find in the hands of Lord Hades' own son, whom I taught the ways of such weapons. I have a distaste for the bow, it must be said, for it was by the bow that my own life was ended early in a manner of debatable glory. May it serve the Prince better than it served me. That is to say, may it serve him better than it served my master from my mortal days. Chiron, lord of centaurs, vast of wisdom; he had told me of its power, shown me it. I was young and did not believe him then. But I believe him now.'

Fighting style

The bow delivers ranged attacks that hit enemies at a distance. The main attack can be charged to increase distance and damage, releasing at the right moment for additional 10 damage. The special sprays arrows in a cone in front of you, dealing 10 damage each.
