1st Level: Only a beastheart can wield this bow. Any weapon ability that deals rolled damage using this weapon deals an extra 1 damage. Additionally, you can target your companion with a ranged weapon strike using this bow, making a glancing shot. The companion can use a free triggered action to redirect the strike to another target as if the companion were the source of the ability, using the ability's original distance. You can't make more than one glancing shot as part of the same ability.
5th Level: The weapon's extra damage increases to 2. When your companion redirects your glancing shot, the strike gains an edge if the target is within 5 squares of your companion.
9th Level: The weapon's extra damage increases to 3. Additionally, you can now make a glancing shot off of an enemy. When you do so, the enemy is unaffected by the strike but takes damage equal to your Intuition score, and you can redirect the strike to a second target as if the enemy was the source of the ability, provided you can see the second target.
