Major kudos on The Goddess Scorned, Charan! A paragon of what uniques should be. Extremely powerful, with creative but equally powerful drawbacks. I cannot wait to get my hands on one :) Only... I really don't like the valentine heart weapon effect, and I'm the sort who will use underpowered gear or avoid more powerful gear, solely based upon how it looks. I think I'll make an exception for this one, though ;)

Powerful: No
Powerful Drawbacks: Yes
Edit: It is a cool unique though - just not an endgame one.

It's apowerful leveling unique. Not every unique needs to be an endgame item.

I think the weapon effect on the screenshot was applied by the person who took it, and is not always on the sword. At least all newer uniques that have an in-built mtx-effect have that text written in blue colour.

That is correct, with the exception of the Demigod items which are in the traditional mtx format. I think it's done that way to prevent other mtx's from being added to the Demigod items and conversely to allow more mtx's to be added to the regular uniques.

Uuuuh, nice bow! :) "Voltaxic Rift" could be a great thing for my LA Ranger, a little bit strange that the Bow first deals lightning dmg and then converts all to chaos but it can shock so it seems OK. Problem is (besides many monsters have chaos resists), I play selffound so I'm poor, I still hope for such an drop, should be possible without doing maps.

This is outside the scope of this bow, since that same strategy can be used with any attacking build. It remains up to GGG to decide if there is a correct benefit/risk trade-off here.
Good luck not getting killed to reflect without vaal pact without this bow.
The damage from reflect, even with auras and ele dmg mods on gear, is nothing compared to a full blown LA reflect. It's enough of a difference that you can drop Vaal Pact safely, which is where you're getting the skill points to grab ZO and B&S.

Er... it only deals chaos damage and chaos damage doesn't reflect. Which is the amazing thing about this bow.

Note how Xendran said " without this bow", referring to Voltaxic :P
