The other thing to consider is you have a baseline success chance of 1/20, so 0.5>1-(0.95^14) tells us you are odds on to succeed on at least one combine if you farm enough pieces for 14 combines - even with 0 skill - are you feeling lucky?
I yolo'd mine at 115 skill and got lucky first try. Talked to a mid level ranger with 145 skill and said they have somewhere betwewn 10-15 fails and no bow yet. #justeverquestthings

One thing a lot of people dont realize about it is that trueshot isnt even magical, so it wont do damage to certain mobs. Its only worth getting if:
1. Nostalgia completion
2. You plan to quest Raincaller

If neither of those apply, buy the superior runed oak bow for 100p and call it a day.

On green, for some reason with non-magical arrows and non-magical bows I could still hit wisps. Might not matter.

Have you ever hit for more than 1dmg without magic? Think that's a workaround for some problem or other that allows non-magic range attack to aggro/pull invuln mob.
