Ember's Bow Combo and its HUGE Damage!
I tested that popular and easy to perform Ember's Bow Light Combo (SL + DL + NL + AirL) in 3 Legends, and thats is the calculated damage (if someone calculate, and get diferent results, tell me on the comments, thanks):
A 3 Defense Status Legend (Thatch): 73.2 (without AirL = 50,8)
A 5 Defense Status Legend (Bödvar): 69.7 (without AirL = 48,2)
A 8 Defense Status Legend (Barraza): 64.8 (without AirL = 44,8)

That combo hurts as hell, even without the Air Light part (that one is easy to dodge). I know she is a glass cannon, but wtf is 64.8 damage in a Legend who has 8 in Defense? Holy moly.

Hi Teros main, how you doing?

Keep in mind that:
-side heavy is pretty much worthless because it´s so slow and previssible that it pretty much never lands
-down heavy requires the enemy to run into it or be baited into it
-neutral heavy is uncomfortable and has an awkward hitbox - too high if the opponent on land, but also often too low if he´s on the air
-bow light attacks are slow and require you to have a good distance with the opponent. If he´s rushing you (as usually happens with many weapons) then you can´t do anything about it. But still it has less range, I think, than other long weapons like axe or hammer
-----bow SL slows you down so much that it feels like you´re a sitting duck every time you attack, and due to the low defense it becomes an almost certain death sentence
-/+ bow light attacks are weird and hard to aim because they have unexpected directions or awkward angles
-bow attacks in general have very thin hitboxes. While other characters cover half the map with every attack, the bow (Ember in general) requires a lot of precission because a slight deviation is enough to miss

That combo and its brutal base damage it´s the only thing the bow has going for itself. And let´s be honest, if you let me hit you with a bow SL, you deserve to get the whole combo. It´s just too easy to dodge or punish.
The only other positive points of the bow are that most people aren´t used to it because it has weird attack angles (so it´s nice to surprise someone, even if it also means it´s harder for me to actually get anything done) and the air SL attacks, which pair well with the speed of the character.

I wouldn´t complain if that combo gets nerfed (it IS very damn powerful), but the bow as a whole needs to be reworked and mostly buffed.

That combo needs to be frame perfect to be true.
So stop complaining you don't dodge, or someone times the combo perfectly.

I'm not asking for Nerf or something, i just calculate the damage, because i see that its a lot of moves in a short time, and do a HUGE damage, that's no one can deny. And, i realy don't like Teros, i hate that cow HAHHAAH. And the frame perfection its something that anyone can achive with training with your main, its not impossible, in fact, you need this to get on the top. And again i'll repeat, as you can see above, i don't ask for Nerf the legend, or the combo, I'm just suprised with the damage and showing to people the damage that you can make with that combo. Maybe after my post, someone now become a Ember main :D
