Bow research and drop rate

Is it me? Am I missing something? I have had 2398472397 spears and shields drop, but bows, only two (not kidding, 2). I have killed 100's and 100's and 100's of mobs all over Glenumbra. From bosses to trash mobs. How is one supposed to do research without drops?

Has anyone experienced this? If it's just me, then I need to figure it out, if not, this needs to change.

    Man, it's driving me nuts. I haven't missed a day of play at all and I can't find any. I looted one last night. The other was a white.

    Why not ask someone who has researched a trait you need to craft you a level 1 maple bow with that trait?

    I've gotten a fair share of bows though I find staves being a bit more common. Either way, the quality of them dont mean squat, even whites can have traits from what I've seen. You've just got some real bad RNG. :P

    How do you get a spear to drop?
