BOW NERF NEEDED

[MagsHype]

Like seriously, im bringing in a mosin only to get one shot from 60+ yards away from a bush camper with a bow. It's too powerful for it's price, it shouldnt be as strong as it is, please nerf this trash weapon already.

[Ruleck2]

To the Op: i must apologize. 60 Yard are about 54 meter (thougt a yard was way more meters). That is still a deadly Range if you got Hit into the upper chest. Its still a mastery shot (when you are in movement) with the bow or just very lucky (or unlucky for you). So my mistake sorry.

Nerf the bow no bleeding!

Bow is good but not OP. It should cost twice price at most but nothing more, then it would be perfectly balanced.

Bow needs to drain stam for draw, plain and simple. Holding it drawn should quickly drain stam

the day when the bow will start eat our stamina is the day when the bow will be useless

but I have to admit that it's funny how throwing some little knives drains stamina but preparing arrow to shoot not

The bow doesn't need to use stamina. Throwing knives are tools and the bow is a weapon slot. A stam penalty could make it useless. However, holding the bow drawn for a period of time should begin to introduce unsteadiness or a shakiness. And they could add a perk that extends avoiding this penalty for a few seconds longer. You shouldn't be able to hold a fully drawn bow for 10 minutes without a penalty of some kind. After 5 or 10 seconds, there should definitely be something building up or running out. The length of time is negotiable but some kind of system should be placed on holding bows to make it harder to hold an angle forever.

The bow is powerful. I've never one-shot anyone at 60m (or yards, whatever). My one-shots are usually under 20m. If a bow guy and a romero guy peek each other at 6m, the romero shot will hit first. Bowman is probably dead and then it is rng whether the romero guy dies. I've headshot bowman at 25-40m ranges, they died, then I took a hit that left me with 5-10 health and bleeding. The easiest 'nerf' for the bow is to step sideways ~ beyond 20-30m it is a painfully slow weapon and likely doesn't kill in one hit. Using bows, I've missed a lot at mid range and almost never one-hit kill (those kills were prolly not full health).

Exactly how i feel about guns with no bullet drop, especially when arrows/bolts do.

Everyone is a Vassili Grigoryevich Zaitsev when you just point and click with guns. I guess secretly we are using rail guns or laser guns.

Bow is crazy OP especially at close-medium range. I just got a 6 kill game with it. Each shot was a 1 shot. You dont even need to shoulder it for it to be pinpoint accurate either. I love using the bow now but Ill still admit it needs to catch a nerf.

When will this nonsense end? At 5-6 stars it's very rare to even see the bow in action. During this event ive been killed 3 times by a bow, thats how rare it is. I use the bow now and then but after the first kill i usually switch to the weapon on the ground (long ammo-rifles most of the time). If the bow would be nerfed i doubt i would ever pick it, i rather go with xbow then.

Im more worried with the hitbox of the bow arrows, literally sick

[minecraft with gadget]

The bow's one of those weapons that seems overpowered when you die to it but isn't actually overpowered in practice. I've died twice to a bow and have killed more than a dozen people that had bows, and most times they never hit me or my partner at all.

At most the only change I think it needs is a small stamina drain when holding your shots.

It will end when Devs stop listening to whiners. As someone who has been stuck forever in 5 stars myself, I've been killed by the bow like 4 times? The whole issue stemmed from people picking the bow path and taking the bow every match to gather event points which led to the noobs that got killed by it thinking it's a bow issue (it's not, they would have been killed by something else anyway) and coming here to cry about it.

[Ben_meistro]

thats just silly. Its not impossible that that happened but if so that is just a lucky shot. DONT PRETEND you have never blind shot a wall and 100 meters and domed some poor soul. It happens to the best of us.

[BurntOutBulb]

Lmao, look at long ammo larry over here complaining about the bow, go cry in a bush with you mosin uppercut combo.
