I understand it’s due to the bug. But I’m pretty sure it’s 0.33 in radius which is the same as fireball heavies.
Maybe, no clue, I do know bows and musket’s consistently shoot through the tiny little cracks and trees while firestaff always clips on them when visually it hits nothing. So has its draw backs.
That’s not true. They’re the same size. Only the fireball light attacks are smaller than arrows.
Dude what are you on about? The long blade of grass/shrubs stop bow attacks it’s actually a nightmare at times
Have to have absolutely terrain clarity to consistently land shots

I play 50 con bow and never in my life has a rapid shot did 10k dmg. Maybe all three arrows and that’s one hell of a maybe. That’s all HS with vorpal in some dude with no resistance to thrust.
And I run the weapon perk on my weapon and bypass a lot of armor.

Only if you take that perk.
A lot of folks don’t take it so they are shooting 0.15 arrows with explosive arrow being 0.05.
Only if you have the one perk.
Go test it on a dummy.
welcome to the other side ( mages )
I did and so did Diety. There is a video on it.
If you don’t take the perk arrows are 0.15 and explosive arrow is 0.05. With the perk they are 0.3.
Honestly they should be about 0.2

I am talking about all 3 total. Each arrow can hit for 2-3k and the final one hits harder, if they all crit it’s potentially over 10k. I said this because someone was saying you only need to worry about the last arrow. Which I think is untrue. They all slap, the stagger makes the 3rd hit a must dodge is all
All three sure, but you did say one.
Please 
.20 is a reasonable middle ground

It’s pretty hard to hit all 3 rapid shot arrows. They’re pretty inaccurate compared to every other arrow shot on bow. Plus you’re rooting yourself for a decent amount of time so yeah, they should slap.

They only slap if u have pen rapid shot on gear
And that value isn’t even high
It’s 32% on weapon
While empowering fireball is 57%
Which is fine but dude of all skills to complain about how is it rapid shot

One rapid shot, the ability, all 3 arrows.
I haven’t complained per say aboit rapid shot specifically, I state my opinions on the changes above. I do complain about the staggers, ramged staggers are a joke. Especially the one on musket. Evade projectile and a basic arrow look identical. Pen shot and the final emrapid arrow look the same. When being shot at by 10 bows, you got 0 clue which is going to stagger and which won’t. Also every melee stagger has a sound Que when the ability is being cast. So when having people chase you, you can hear a POD or shockwave or anything being cast, even javelin, but it’s almost impossible to hear a bow/ musket stagger coming from behind or while In a skirmish. You just get staggered with 0 warning at times.

Cool. Personally I’d say 3 rapid shots since it’s three separate shots even though it’s one attack but now that we are on the same page, I agree, 3 rapids can put in deeps.
And yes I wish they didn’t add the weapon perk changes didn’t get added. They are definitely have mixed up the game. But I would prefer to have it like it was before.
You realize that’s the only form of CC bow has? The stagger is fine since evade shot isn’t easy to land and neither is the last shot of rapid shot.
You know what’s also not fair? Being hit out of nowhere with a leaping strike into a hammer CC chain.
There’s really 0 reason to complain about the staggers from bow
