I've narrowed it down to these two, since I want speed and character portability  Thanks in advance!

In that case, Blade. Average damage is a slight bit higher, and it's got a lower str requirement than Great.

i should've clarified that strength is not an issue - my strafer is currently using windforce (134 str on the dot) and my elemental zealot (who is most likely to use this as his OK & Cow weapon) has almost 300 strength

Both are the same base speed, so I'd say the only difference are stat requirements and average damage.
Stats aside, go with higher average damage, and secondly, LOOKS. Equip them first. The average on them is close enough for you to be able to go with the better-looking bow and have a huge loss in performance.

technically, if you use any of the zon skills, the bows don't fire any of the explosive arrows - just regular stuff. sooo, the bow is not for my zon, but for my pally
