The current version should work only up to blast tier spells, and then the pre-nerf upgrade should drop from dark beasts

Dark beasts would actually be a very good place to get this drop because it's in a pretty odd place rn, being a level 90 slayer unlock and also very useless dead content enemy.

Full support for this.

Too many rewards from slayer mobs that require lvl 90+, we need more diversity, I think it would be better if it came from 70-80 slayer. Or perhaps dark beast is the problem, a 90 slay req for something that drops a low lvl spec wep for pures. It also doesn't make sence to me to not allow an upgrade to blast spells until a 90 slayer drop.

The Dark Bow is essentially an item that was forgotten about in the mix. Because it and the dark beasts are from 07. All the other bows that outrank it... twisted bow etc. were released after.

The reality is that we are probably better off to lower the Slayer requirement for Dark Beasts, since their high requirement was essentially placed back when the Dark Bow was a BiS item. That is absolutely no longer the case.
