The Longbow of Diana is the ranger quest artifact. It is chaotic for wishing purposes. Its base item type is a bow.
When carried, the Longbow of Diana confers telepathy. When wielded, it confers reflection and +d5 to hit when firing arrows. Invoking the Bow creates arrows with the same BUC status as the Bow — a blessed Bow creates more arrows, up to 21 at once, and a cursed Bow less, at most 11 at once. The Bow does not have charges but the invocations have a little timeout, so you cannot create new arrows every turn.
History
The Longbow of Diana first appears, along with the Ranger class, in NetHack 3.3.0 under the name of The Longbow of Artemis. It was renamed in NetHack 3.4.0.
