any use for bow?

[Kanjejou]

damn bow are super bad... even a level 20 shoting guy cant hit for ♥♥♥♥.

was playing tribal start got a 15 shoting gusy with nor physical problem...
he train througth hunting up to 20

get attacked by raiders, unable to hit anything in 20 shots...

that bow are slwo to fire and weak why not but innacuracy is too high...

I woudl prefer that we get a bow skill than to have such bad chance to hit.

depedns on quality of bow, light level, traits like carefull shooting, skill lvl and rng but bows and pilas can be lethal 1 shots

[Ashardalon]

great bow can insta kill people
they are the sniper rifle of tribals
and accuracy depends a lot on weapon quality/condition and enemy cover

short bows have less damage so less dismemberment for easyer recruiting
and while less dmg they fire faster
heard someswhere that they get a hunting bonus to, dont know how that works

just make sure your enemy has nowhere to hide behind
i have never had issues with bows

edit: light lvl does not influece things anymore

[Kanjejou]

yeah but every weapon can do lethal one shot... its just that bow are so innacurate that you struggle to even kil a single squirrel.

[Ashardalon]

on a squirrel yes every weapon can one shot, but greatbows one shot humans and scythers

[Kanjejou]

I was talkign on human i litteraly one shot ennemies bare handed.

[Ashardalon]

i have never seen a one shot from human fist
bruises need a lot to kill usually
mods?

[Kanjejou]

[Ashardalon]

The enemy must have something that was making it weak.
This is impossible to kill an healthy guy in one bare hand hit.
You do 5 damamge and everything got more hp then that.

Slow firing weapons like bows and snipers seem worse then they are because their inaccuracy is very noticable, but they can deal a ton of damage when they do hit.

The accuracy of a weapon is also determined by:

- Quality of the Weapon
- Condition of the Weapon
- Cover rating of the enemy (enemies behind trees will be harder to hit, for example)

Check it's stats to make sure it doesn't have a very low accuracy at max range. If it does, try moving a little closer when using it.
