any mod that make bow in this game feel more powerful?

[Calypso]

unlike skyrim that when you headshot someone with bow it does so much damage and more powerful. this one. i feel like it's toy and not feel powerful at all. in skyrim 3 shot is enough for taking 1 bandit. in this game it take 10 ARROWS to kill thief which is unrealistic since 1 arrow can kill most of the people in real life. everything in this game is better than skytim except this. i want bow more satisfying and more action-ish than RPG. any mod about bow that make this more powerful? i hate melee fight in elder scroll series. it's too powerful and no fun for me.

also, did oblivion has killcam mod? skyrim's killcam with bow is great and mind-blowing. if this game has killcam mod it would be better and funnier.

if anyone found mod that did not make time stop when you talk to NPC please tell me. it's ruin all of the immersion because everything stop when talking to NPC.

1 last thing. i have lag issue. this game is old and skyrim with 10 fps look smoother than this with 15 FPS.. if there's low-end mod out there please tell me. thanks :D

As with almost everything in this game, damage increases as you gain levels. Agility and marksman govern the damage that your bow deals. On top of that, archers have the advantage that both the bow as well as the arrow type have a damage component to them, which means that you can reach incredibly high damage outputs if you have a powerful, enchanted bow (i.e. hatred's soul) combined with enchanted arrows (i.e. arrow of storms). While the attack speed is slow, the damage dealt is like no other.
I'm sure there are mods that tinker with the weapon damage, i'm not familiar with any but you can simply browse http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/? to find what you're looking for. That goes for all your other questions too, by the way.

Yep. I saw a kill cam mod for bows at NexusMods, but I cannot remember the name of the mod. And yes, I just searched for one and couldn't find it.

Hint:
Get good at Alchemy and poison those arrows.

Start the main quest at Level 12 or later to get some really good stones to enchant your favorite bow with.

Even though it is set up for female characters, the Apachii Goddess Store does have a really good enchanted bow with some very hard hitting arrows you can buy. You can buy 1,000 arrows at a time.

Arrows Remastered cuts down on the weight issue, but it has to be near the bottom of the load order to work properly.

Though I haven't tried it out yet, the Godly Bow and LOLish Arrow might fill your needs.

If you have alot of mods or a mod that you uninstalled recently one of them most likely tweaked or altered the Oblivion.ini.

This sometimes will corrupt the ini after you uninstall certain mods. So the best chance at restoring your game will be by deleting the Oblivion.ini that is located in your documents under mygames. When you relaunch the game after deleting the Oblivion.ini, The game will generate a new one that is unmodified which should allow you to launch the game again.

I have only encountered stuttering before I installed BOSS and was running the Unofficial Oblivion Update. If you have any of the Unofficial Updates installed, remove them immediately. They have some really annoying bugs that will cause yor character to freeze at certain quest points, alters the maps badly which can cause you to fall off of the map and many other bugs.

These help.

Download Oblivion Mod Manager, OBMM, which also has a nifty conflict detector. Mod conflicts, such as two mods that do the same thing can cause Oblivion to crash.

Some people swear by Wrye Bash, but I refuse to install Oblivion to another location other than Steam so I can get it to work.

Download OBSE which some mods need to work properly.
http://obse.silverlock.org/

Download BOSS, because load order means everything in Oblivion.
http://boss-developers.github.io/

Download FastExit2 (OBSE needed to run) which helps prevent crashes on exit and saves.

Also, it cannot hurt to go through all the "readme" files and look to see if there is an associated "Required" mod that you did not download or install.

And don't forget, make sure the Oblivion.esm and associated files must be enabled for the Steam version of Oblivion to run. Yes, that means Knights, Battlehorn and all the other crap has to be enabled.

Enchant your bow and your arrows. Enchant anything that you can. Like the other guy said, use poisons. Once you level up and enchant everything, bows are very powerful. Also, go to the Shivering Isles or whatever that DLC is called. You can make good bows and arrows out of material you can collect there.
