Greatsword vs bow for solo?

[tomchynsky]

Heya. For solo better using bow or GS?

[pmcollectorboy]

Depends on if you want to make tons of fast hits that add up to big damage but might miss or one slow but ginormous hit of big damage that might miss.

[Kiwimaru]

Why not learn both.

For solo new player better play ls or gs ez to farm and dont need much thing to use

[SeeSeeBee]

there are some monster down the line that is very hard to kill for melee, so its good if u learn 1 melee and 1 ranged to better adapt.

Bow is high demanding jewel to work like bow plus

[Hykaro]

depends wich one you are playing better with nothing else

I honestly prefer GS for most content, but both are fantastic dps and capable of getting equal times in solo, it's all preference.

GS is likely stronger if you bring a hefty amount of flash pods for flying monsters (as long as they're not tempered). Bow on the other hand is easier to use and works in every situation.
Tip: if you're farming solo with bow, add Stamina Thief to your build. You'll get them exhausted pretty easily.

Slugger works really well in solo for bows as well, you can all but stunlock a non-tempered monster by spamming power shot to arc shot
