Yang's Recurve is a Legendary Bow in Diablo III, added in Patch 2.3.0. It requires character level 70 to drop.
The legendary affix originally increased only the Attack Speed of Multishot. As of Patch 2.6.1, it gained a damage bonus, potentially tripling the damage.
Moreover, it also provides a massive reduction in resource costs. This applies to both Hatred spenders and Discipline spenders. This is useful given the six-piece bonus for the related Unhallowed Essence set; moreover, the resource cost reduction benefits the damage reduction bonus provided by the three-piece Captain Crimson's Trimmings set.
The reduction is the largest such bonus of any item, regardless of class. The base roll of 40.0 to 50.0 percent cannot be enchanted, but the item can still roll a standard resource cost reduction that can be.
