The bow is unusable now, its damage is too low for dps and the arrow travels very slowly, although it is a ranged weapon, the arrow travel speed and range are insufficient. There is no aiming box and shooting a man in pvp is a real pain in the ass. After using an ability in Bow, the animation makes you wait for 2 seconds. You don’t stand a chance against the musket, especially if there is more than 50 meters between you. If it is not fixed in the next update, I will quit the game because it has become so boring. I’m playing 382 dex 50 cons, but I hit someone with 2 k, the imbalance is at the upper limit, I love bow as a bow user, I hope it gets fixed…

Bow is really good but every weapon has it’s counters in this game. Im kiting GA/Hammer users to death and they’re dying before they can get even near me Even with the 4.5 meter lunge range, they can’t catch me. However, musket in my opinion is a good counter of bow in terms of long range. Try to do the jump animation cancel thing.
Play IG and FS and say you have low damage and are useless. The bow is very strong.

Its not dead i crit for 8k on people from farm away. Yes muskets counter the shit out of us buttt if i land a heavy hit on a musket user from 50m plus it almost is always a 1 tap lol and it feels great. However they do gotta do something with the arrow velocity. Just increase it a little bit! Not alot so that it becomes over powered but just a little so where not throwing wet pool noodles at people

Yeah its absolutely unplayable. How dare people crit 30k into lazarus bosses. Thats just way too low. And PvP? I got only a free evade and 2 dot skills and unlimited firing range if u invest 30+ more hours into bow training. Thats just unplayable damage is too low no utility /r Sarcasm.
Sad Firestaff noises in 3k crits into non voidbent geared armor (Because its fun to create endgame armor thats literaly made against elemental damage)

I agree with you, the range of arrow and the travels is terrible, you can fix the target on your screen that he only need press A or D, one click that the hitbox of arrow dont take him…
It’s so sad!!!

Not even close, it still needs an arrow velocity buff but that 8k is on light armors and my build it meant for 1 taps. All my damage if in the first heavy shot at and on a target with 100% hp

I don’t agree on the damage, as a bow user myself i think we got plenty, i do think its justified tho, as the bow is incredibly hard to hit, hitbox is down to the pixel. They can tune the damage down, im fine with it, but they gotta balance it with the hibox and buff that. If they nerf its damage too hard, and given its hitbox, it will go from one of the best pvp weapons to the absolute worst, and why would people play it when there is a easy way out = musket.

He doesn’t crit anyone for 8k unless they are naked
Very few ppl play bow on my server. Nearly all ranged dps is musket.
Bow projectile needs doubled in size.

Exactly, everyone seems to forget musket is a thing xD Insane damage (can do more than bow even if right build), 3xx tick damage on the burn, hitscan, and is normally camped on top of mountain. At least bow players play on the field.
