I was thinking there could be wood(normal),stone,iron,gold, and diamond bows you could craft by putting the bow of the lower class wood>stone>iron>gold>diamond and surrounding it with ingots or blocks of the resource to craft it. Each bow could do different amount of damage and fire rates and in 1.8 maybe higher charges... Not sure if this is a good idea please answer in the pole and reply :biggrin.gif:
There is a mod, elemental bows or arrows (cant remember) which has diffrent bows/arrows, but i think like this it should be the arrow where you should focus on, those give the damage
