Damian the Imperious one filled you in on that I believe.

Nice. 3 off perfect. Depending on what base damage the bow rolled with it 
could be a good one.

Well, when you consider that the bow has 1% Deadly Strike per clvl (and a 
Witchyzon puts several points at least into the skill) then that 150 - 170% 
range is really more like +300 - 340% ED to a high-level zon. (I've upped 
mine to a Diamond Bow too.)

Yeah, my (currently) Witchyzon strafer is using a 161% bow (thanks Kaytie) 
which has the sockets populated with +ED% jewels (I think maybe a 23% and a 
27%, one I had and the other courtesey of Kaytie). I was hoping to find 
another, higher ED one as they're (usually) not uncommon and use higher ED 
jewels in it or, if the rune drops are what they're cracked up to be, a 
couple of OHMs for +50% ED each.

However the runes aren't exactly raining from the sky (at least for me) so 
if I get big rune I'll likely go the Faith way. However a higher +ED WWS and 
higher +ED jewels is perhaps an option. The difference between your WWS and 
mine is only 6% though and I haven't found any higher ED jewels yet either. 
Therefore the question's moot really. If yours was 170%, I has a couple 40% 
ED jewels (or aforementioned OHMs spare) *and* you had no plans for a bowyer 
I'd consider begging it from you. As it is it's not worth it my friend, 
thanks though.
