You can purchase the Renegade Warrior Bow from the Hunter who has set up camp at Thornmarsh. You’ll need a Elemental Clawstrider Circulator which is an Uncommon Drop from Clawstriders and a Large Machine Core which is a Rare Drop from large machines, such as a Tremortusk.

How to Use the Renegade Warrior Bow
