I want to make a graph like this but obviously for diablo 1

not diablo 2
more on this:

I now realise I guess that since "of swiftness" is not as high of an ilvl suffix as "of haste" that kings can not exist as a prefix for it? unless I missed something.

so massive/swiftness is the best damage bow in the game

I also found this:

"
Because the quality level of the prefix 'massive' is exactly twice the quality level of the suffix 'swiftness,' this would be a very difficult item to find in the dungeon. There are only a few types of monsters that have a high enough level to generate massive as a prefix but not too high to be out of the range of swiftness...

So if you're dying to get this bow your best bet is to start a new character (and if you do, make sure you settle for nothing less than a perfect spawn of massive which is +110% damage). Don't be discouraged, the same thing happened to me. By the time I really sat down to analyze bows I was already well beyond the level where I could buy the mbos. So I just got along without it.

Another note...if you take into account the average damage per arrow, the difference between the massive bow of swiftness and most other end game bows is probably not going to translate to one less arrow that you would have to fire at a hell/hell blood knight or advocate. The faster speed just means you can move to the next target sooner and you may have to rest your finger more often =P
"
so windforce is probably just as useful as a perfect massive bow of swiftness but I like the fact that MBOS doesn't have KB

I like knock back in diablo 2 but not in diablo 1
