The Raven Bow – Three Star

Players can find the Raven Bow with the help of Wishes and is a suitable weapon for Amber, without wasting any of the resources collected by the players. It increases the damage inflicted upon the enemies from 12 to 24. However, this is only true for the ones who get affected by Hydro or Pyro attacks.

The Slingshot – Three Star

One of the biggest drawbacks of the bow is that it can decrease the attack she inflicts by 10 percent, but is only limited to her Normal or Charged Attack.

The Messenger – Three Star

One of the easiest weapons that Amber can equip is The Messenger. It can be found in the chests that are laying around on the map.

When she’s using this weapon, her attack’s damage is increased when she hits a weak target. This can be used every 10 seconds when she is in the battle.
