I don't know which one to pick

I have done my x3 barb lives already, done my x3 caster lives as well

never actually played as a ranger with a bow or melee with a thw before meh

which do you think I should pick?

i mean von5/6 is run a lot more than abbots so more %chance of getting a sos on 20th turn in right than ardency?

Thanks in advance

Shining crescents... For all we know they may add vorpal and 10-20/x5 crit property to it a few months from now.

Litany of the Dead.

Or maybe the quiver, which everyone seems to be in love with.

Unwavering is a cool looking weapon, but there's better options for bows (like Greensteel).

SoS is awesome, but the heroic version drops often enough to not worry about it. Most people have one and put there's up for roll. It's the shard that's the major score.

Just my opinion though 

I'd take Tharne's on every "dps" character if you don't have it yet. Plenty of good heroic named weapons.

Yeah, I already got the quiver for all of my accounts - upgraded. It's really not that hard

Here's the process.
0. Before creating a random character have crafted +1 100 holy arrows make sure they are bound to account via CC
- put those arrows in your shared bank

1. create a new random character
- I like doing druids so choose the preset path and choose level 4 so I can get access to wolf wildshape for that 10% striding

2. just select "continue on path" choose jump and longerstride buffs, cast them while on ship, don't forget to wildshape to wolf

3. jump off the ledge and accumulate 0-16 fall damage and run to house p

4. collect quiver from token

5. before creating a random character have crafted +1 100 holy arrows make sure they are bound to account via CC

6. go to house c, go to bank, grab your account bound arrows in shared bank, double click quiver gather
-take out the 100 masterword arrows if you want to

7. drag your now newly account bound quiver into your shared account.

8. If you wish to repeat this process delete the druid you just created and repeat steps 1-7

Its no secret, hell its on the freaking wiki. This is not an exploit, this is WAI:

After completing your twentieth run, do a Lesser(may work with other types).

You will get a different 20th rewards list.

The problem with weapons, is that GS starts at level 11.  Is there anything you can use that is better than a Min II or a Lit II? 

Side note:  Unwavering Ardency looks cool as hell.  Love the look on that bow.

If you got most of the other good stuff the djinn hands out, from what I see that you listed, just get the bow...I mean sos is piss easy to get compared to the bow.

This is why I come here.

The friendly, helpful service. 

Maybe I'm just an idiot(in fact I'm fairly sure I am) but what makes the goggles so good by themselves? It kind of feels like you really need at least 2 pieces of the set before they start looking good.

Fair enough.

Funny thing, is that quiver nowdays is nothing big.
I mean guild buff overlaps with striding, and lasts for hours, while most if not all in heroics at least, use old resistances.
So every one hour u r back to the ship to get ur buffs... meaning u get a 10% ranged alacrity..that's all.
Not that 10% ranged alacrity is something to throw away, but NOTHING game-changing.. it's not like the old trick to run heroics using epic twists and shit, just an example and my 2cents.

P.S. If u ran abbot in the past and never managed to get it, just for the heck of it , yeah take it, i will understand that more, way the fuck more actually.

Think they're BTC? 
but you need the favor, and if you're using the recycle iconic, you don't have the favor.
