The Nymph's bow is found in skills\nature\pets\slyvannymph_attack_Default.dbr. The last four levels of the offensivePierceMax variable read:

17: 80
18: 86
19: 73
20: 81

It looks like the programmer meant to type 93 instead of 73 and then propagated the error. I think that the following change is sensible:

19: 73 -> 93
20: 81 -> 101

After reading that thread, I concluded that nobody actually gave any good reason (it was just a hunch) for the bonuses not to exist. I do believe it is broken now. Also, Ganelon "This is because their suffix table contains a reference to a bonus that doesn't exist", which means there is indeed a reference.
Both of these charms have pretty high chance of spawning with the following bonus:

Records\Item\LootMagicalAffixes\AnimalRelics\Bonus es\Offensive_%Poison_01.dbr

This bonus doesn't exist. If I understand the French readme correctly, they solved this problem by simply eliminating the reference to the dud bonus. I think that it would be more in keeping with the original spirit of the game to simply create this bonus. We could use the elemental % bonuses as a guideline.
