Iv'e got a bow character, and it's actually stupidly fun to use them. What bows do y'all recommend i use on them, though?

Right now i'm just being a basic ♥♥♥♥♥ and using a longbow, but i know eventually i'll get a Greatbow and some sort of Crossbow. What bows do y'all recommend?

Black Bow of Pharis

[Bobby Fabulous]

composite bow is my personal favorite

[Combine_3650]

millwood greatbow if you want a rocket launcher

[Captain Stitch]

i think Composite Bow has the best base damage? iirc.

or you could just go Greatbows and pummel people over edges :D

[Krampus]

composite / pharris bow,
millwood greatbow
and sniper crossbow / avelyn are the most fun to use imo

[portnite]

Thanks for all of your guy's input!!! I think i'll probably go Millwood/Dragonslayer, Avelyn and probably Pharris bow. Once i get em (Probably gonna be an hour or two since i gotta run through f a s t), i'll post again on how i'm doin!

Composite bow is the best bow for PvP.

Including all ranged weapons, crossbows (Arbalest or Avelyn) are best for PvP when paired with exploding bolts. It is good enough to win duels by itself.

Greatbows are great for watching people try and approach them safely. You can just sit there with an arrow readied and fire the second you see them go to attack, bowling them over and letting you create space. May not work if they're wearing a small cathedral and swinging an ultra weapon, but that doesn't come up too often.

Millwood is better than Dragonslayer in almost every way but one.
Millwood scales with str and alot of bows scale well with dex.
That can be a problem.

A short bow (or composit, I don't know english name). It's the most fast and good forshooting near the opponent. The milwood greatbow is the best to shoot from big distanse. Black bow is good too.

It depends on your build and what you focus on. For a strength build milwood is the best due to the low dex requirements. So basically find something that will compliment your build and be sure that you can work it in there with other weapons because bows of any kind really are better when they surprise.

If you get the timing down, bows are extremely good at roll catching.
If someone is low on hp and they panic roll away to estus, nock an arrow and watch them flop around.
Obv doesn't work against seasoned pvp'ers but for the most part it's a good finisher.

Black Bow of Pharis or Dragonrider Bow with standard, large, feather and dark arrows.

It is easy mod to kill Old Demon King, Pontiff, Dancer, Soul of Cinder, Nameless King,
Friede and Midir (although to be fair Midir is easy to kill with melee also).
Also very good against Gael second and third phase.

Dark and feather arrows are good against invaders.
