Kridershot is a legendary bow in Diablo III. It requires character level 31 to drop.
The bow's unique affix turns Elemental Arrow into a Hatred-generating skill, removing the Hatred cost and making it generate the resource on cast (not on hit), regardless of the selected rune. The skill does not count as a Primary skill, but will count as Hatred generator. Therefore, for example, Unhallowed Essence will enhance it, but Obsidian Ring of the Zodiac will not proc off it.
Kridershot formerly had a guaranteed socket, which was significant earlier in the game's evolution for achieving high endgame damage. The introduction and availability of Ramaladni's Gifts made this concern irrelevant or even a negative, and the socket is no longer guaranteed.

Long ago, an outmatched hero defeated a great demon archer with a lucky shot and claimed its mighty weapon as his own. It was to be the last good fortune he enjoyed, as the dying demon's curse wormed its way into the bow. For the remainder of his short life, the hero never knew a day free from conflict. Strife and destruction have dogged every poor soul to bear the bow.
