Precision Bowcaster

The Precision Bowcaster is a Reputation Ambassador sniper rifle that can be found in Star Wars: The Old Republic. The Precision Bowcaster can only be used at level 10 and up, but if you are higher than level 10 you can wear it cosmetically in the Outfitter to show its appearance on your character while using a higher-level weapon in your Gear tab for stats.

How to Get: Special Reputation Vendor ( 12 Rakghoul Cannisters, 10 Bounty Contracts, 9 Gray Helix)

This is a direct screenshot of the Precision Bowcaster! The file name is thumbnail-precision-bowcaster.jpg - as long as I named it right and didn't mix up its name with another weapon, this should be an exact screenshot of this weapon, which I or another player actively owned.

Sound: Bowdaar

All Blaster Rifles with the Bowdaar sound type have the same sound, including the Precision Bowcaster. This isn't the official name, and this Blaster Rifle sound type may be labelled something like weaponrangedriflebowcaster01 in the background of the game.

Here is a video of the Precision Bowcaster!

How to Get Special Reputation Vendor Weapons

Read more about these weapons at the Reputation Guide page on Swtorista.com.

The Automatic Bowcaster is a blaster rifle which can only be earned through completing multiple events including the Bounty Contract Week Event, the Gree Event and the Rakghoul Event and earning the currency from those events. The Event Ambassador weapons can be purchased from the Specialty Goods vendor located in the Cartel Bazaar section of the Fleet (Northern elevator Republic side, southern elevator Imperial side).

Very expensive! Costs 12 Rakghoul DNA Cannister (Rakghoul Event), 10 Completed Bounty Contract (Bounty Event), 8 Gray Helix Components (Gree Events) from the Ambassador in the Cartel Bazaar section of the fleet.
