The Black Widow is a Dark-elemental bow available for Anna in Epic Battle Fantasy 4 and 5.

Description

The Black Widow is a black bow with jagged projections on its front edge. Eight red gems are set in the bow behind these projections, giving it the vague appearance of a spider's head.

The Black Widow is an aptly named Dark-elemental Bow which specializes in degrading the target's defences while dishing out high damage. It provides great Attack boosts and an okay Magic Attack one. It has no other stat boosts to speak of. It boosts Dark skills, but Anna's only options at that are magical shared skills: Fright (EBF4 only) and Screamer. It provides resistance to Dark and Curse, as well as Bad Luck, Doom and Instant Death in EBF5, up to an immunity from the status(es).

It improves upon its own damage output by applying Curse with weapon-elemental attacks, slowly debuffing their Defence and Magic Defence, and may counterattack with Normal Attack, possibly leading to additional application of Curse.

In EBF4, it may cast Dark Spikes with single-target and centered weapon-elemental skills, which simply deal more Dark damage without any special effects. In EBF5, it instead randomly summons Spider Swarm between turns, debuffing foes' Evade and giving them Bad Luck without any damage. In EBF5 it also increases enemies' chances to Surrender, further boosting Screamer.

Epic Battle Fantasy 5

Found inside a chest in the 50 Medals Room in the Grand Gallery, the chest is guarded by dragons.
