Its like that blunderbuss passive that gives you a speed boost of 40% after reload that decays over 1s. Blunderbuss has the same root/slow after firing and also has it on reloading. Like why? lol.

Bow really need buff IMO, this is my play using bow, its clunky as it is but its really fun weapon to used.

I’m a bow spear player and finally after taking and taking I’m moving to meta.

All this you enumerate plus the stuck after shooting and the poor performance at mid range compare to musket that is far better at long and mid range make me finally quit from bow.

But that are not the only issues with bow, there are more:

It has a very bad hit box.
Arrows sometimes goes through enemies.
When you press the button to use a skill sometimes you hear the sound but the skill is not being triggered.
And more…

Bow is so much fun to use and it has the potential to bring a lot of competitive players back to new world, but the devs do not understand that. For example, a majority of competitive streamers used bow and either rapier or spear and most competitive players used builds like this because it is a high skill weapon, and most people cannot execute properly with it

You can still do It

Bow is the only ranged weapon that should get Plague Strikes

plagued strikes is heavy attacks? not manny people run heavy attacks on bow. crits is better

Plague crits only triggers on targets below 50% health and only lasts for 6 seconds. Plague strikes is WAY more reliable

Amazon,

When you make new perks, just delete the old ones and replace them with the new ones. No one will be upset about this.

Almost had hope they were reworking Bow perks , guess they working as intended

The bow feels night and day better now though, and it finally feels like a bow should. The hit box is still small very small but arrows actually hit now and they do not fly through people. The arrows are not faster but you can shoot faster. Most importantly You can dodge after a shot strait into sprint, so you aren’t just standing there frozen after your shots anymore, and as long as you dodge after your shots you are not hit with that stupid 1 second root, no dodge has some sort of delay, but not like before, and charged attack is fast enough to use in pvp now. The bow is back!
I do agree with you guys that the perks are absolutely dog water though, but this is still a win imo.

You’d rather have perks that are so op become necessary spending a ton more just to get perks together? On top of ammo costs? Instead of just rocking a full set of the new pvp gear?
