The ice-dyed Seren godbow is a Seren godbow that has been dyed with an ice dye - it is otherwise the same as the undyed variant. This process is irreversible. It can be augmented with an augmentor to make the augmented Seren godbow (Ice).

It has a special attack called Crystal Rain which costs 30% adrenaline and has a 30 second cooldown: five arrows are launched into the air in a 5x5 area centred randomly on any tile occupied by the player's target, with one arrow always in the centre. Each arrow does 50-200% ability damage if it hits, but if the target is hit multiple times, the maximum damage is reduced by 25% per arrow (larger targets are easier to hit multiple times).

The godbow has 60,000 charges of combat (a minimum of 10 hours) before degrading to a broken state. It can be recharged at a repair NPC for 4,800,000 coins, or less on an armour stand.

Special attack

The Seren godbow's special attack, Crystal Rain.

This article has a calculator here. Calculators determine experience and costs based on real-time prices from the Grand Exchange Market Watch.

Seren godbow has a special attack called Crystal Rain which costs 30% adrenaline. Five arrows are launched into the air with the first arrow always landing and dealing damage one tick before the remaining arrows. If the attack is successful, there is a 30 second cooldown before it may be used again. If the attack misses, then the remaining four arrows will also miss, but no cooldown penalty is incurred, allowing the player to use the special attack again.

The first arrow always has an opportunity to land; the others may not have this opportunity as they need to land on a game square occupied by the target.

Arrow	Ability Damage Range
1	80%-200%
2	80%-240%
3	80%-213%
4	80%-186%
5	80%-160%

All 5 arrows of Crystal Rain (special attack of Seren godbow) hitting Araxxi.

Using the special attack against an NPC which takes up a lot of game squares will increase the likelihood that multiple arrows will hit, potentially dealing extremely high damage. The determination of the number of hits a monster receives is described as follows. First, if the special attack hits, the first arrow will always hit. Then, the remaining four arrows will be determined. The centre of an NPC is chosen and the radius is calculated as the floor of half of the NPC size. A square within the radius from the centre of the NPC is chosen as the centre of the special attack. A 5x5 area centred at that square is where the remaining four arrows will be chosen. A random square is chosen from this area, and then random squares chosen, without duplicates, until there are four arrows, or when it fails to find a non-duplicate ten times. The number of squares chosen that also lie on the NPC squares are the number of arrows that hit. Targets that block the player from running through the game squares occupied by the target (such as Araxxi or Astellarn) always have the centre of the monster as the centre of the special attack. To add, there are targets such as Telos, the Warden on phase 5 and The Sanctum Guardian that are not classified as an NPC that blocks the player; instead, it is the environment (for these NPCs) that prevents the player from accessing the game squares occupied by the NPCs.

Interaction with multiple sources

A demonstration of arrows 2 through 9 landing on a training dummy set to maximum hit mode. This was done by having each player cast Crystal Rain with the same setup of 1110 ability damage (using mechanised chinchompas) with no boosts, no perks, etc. on the same game tick. The remaining life points of the dummy is 86,680. This matches the expected damage by adding up the damage from arrows 2 through 9: 2664 + 2368 + 2072 + 1776 + 1480 + 1184 + 888 + 888 = 13,320. The damage from arrows 8 and 9, both 888, are not visible as there are a maximum of 6 hitsplats visible on a target at a time.

If a target receives multiple secondary arrows from Crystal Rain within 2 ticks of each other from multiple sources, then the arrows that land will continue with the pattern described by arrows 2 through 5. Sources in this context refers to arrows that are sourced by:

• other players
• casting the Crystal Rain special attack stored within an essence of finality^(or) while using mechanised chinchompas or if the Decimation special attack, Locate, is also active.

With this, the pattern continues on, up to arrow 8, where any secondary arrows that would land beyond this have the same damage range as arrow 8. Secondary arrows 6, 7, and 8 have the following pattern:

Arrow	Ability Damage Range
6	80%-133%
7	80%-106%
8+	80%-80%

Recommended bosses

The Seren godbow is recommended for the following boss fights as its special attack can deal very high damage per use, depending on the size of the target. In general, it is recommended for bosses that occupy at least 3x3 game squares if casting this while using Ranged and for bosses that are at least 5x5 if casting this off-style with Melee or Magic (usually with the Ingenuity of the Humans).

The Seren godbow special attack does 50% more damage within Death's Swiftness.

The expected number of arrows are the average amount of arrows that land on a target of a specific size if repated many times.

Damage calculation

Consider a 5x5 (size 5) NPC that is non-blocking. Finding the average damage done by the Seren godbow special attack can be done as follows. Note that the following assumptions will be made for this example:

• No perks are used
• Player is at base stats
• No prayers/curses are used
• No other critical hit boosting gear (such as Erethdor's grimoire) are used
• Damage caps are ignored

To find the average damage done on a 5x5 in this example, the individual probabilities for the chance of each arrow to land are needed.

$\sum \limits _{n=1}^{5}p_{n}\cdot d_{n}$

• $p_{n}$ is the probability of $n$ arrows landing
• $d_{n}$ is the average damage associated with $n$ arrows landing (in this example, as each arrow's damage is assumed to be uniform throughout their respective range, the average of the ability damage range is used for each arrow).

${\begin{aligned}\sum \limits _{n=1}^{5}p_{n}\cdot d_{n}&=p_{1}\cdot d_{1}+p_{2}\cdot d_{2}+p_{3}\cdot d_{3}+p_{4}\cdot d_{4}+p_{5}\cdot d_{5}\\&=0.045\cdot {\frac {1}{2}}\left[(80\%+200\%)\right]\\&\quad +0.193\cdot {\frac {1}{2}}\left[(80\%+200\%)+(80\%+240\%)\right]\\&\quad +0.324\cdot {\frac {1}{2}}\left[(80\%+200\%)+(80\%+240\%)+(80\%+213\%)\right]\\&\quad +0.282\cdot {\frac {1}{2}}\left[(80\%+200\%)+(80\%+240\%)+(80\%+213\%)+(80\%+186\%)\right]\\&\quad +0.155\cdot {\frac {1}{2}}\left[(80\%+200\%)+(80\%+240\%)+(80\%+213\%)+(80\%+186\%)+(80\%+160\%)\right]\\&=(0.045\cdot 140\%)+(0.193\cdot 300\%)+(0.324\cdot 446.5\%)+(0.282\cdot 579.5\%)+(0.155\cdot 699.5\%)\\&=481\%\end{aligned}}$

Interaction with the Ammunition slot

Furthermore, the ammuntion slot is ignored for arrows 2 to 5. This means that if black stone arrows, dragonbane arrows, etc. are used, only the first arrow applies the effect from the ammunition slot and the damage and effect from arrows 2 to 5 are equivalent to having nothing in the ammuntion slot.

However, if the Seren godbow is stored inside the Essence of Finality amulet^(or) and the Crystal Rain special attack is cast with a weapon able to make use of the enchanted bolt effects, all 5 arrows of Crystal Rain are affected.

Repair cost

The Seren godbow (ice) at most, costs 4,800,000 coins to repair completely. The repair cost is precisely calculated by the degradation percentage (i.e. with 75% charge remaining, a full repair would only cost 1,200,000 coins). It may be repaired through a variety of methods.

With an NPC

These less preferred methods cost more as they do not consider one's Smithing level for a repair discount.

• Bob - the axe seller in Lumbridge
• Tindel Marchant - the weapon and armour repairman at Port Khazard
• Dunstan - the smith in Burthorpe
• Squire - in the workshop area of the Void Knights' Outpost

Alternate methods

These preferred methods provide a repair cost discount of 0.5% per Smithing level (including boosts).

• An armour stand in a player-owned house
• A whetstone device which can be used anywhere
• The Item Repair ability on a legendary pet can be used once per hour
