Hopefully another rework to Oathkeeper as well. It amazes me how the exotic meant to buff an entire weapon type ultimately works against the weapon type itself because it's ultimately more beneficial to rapid fire the bows, and in the case of exotic bows, you HAVE to use them the wrong way in order to use the gloves the right way, and that's not to mention the fact exotic bows don't fully benefit from the gloves to begin with.

  • They just need to swap the damage bonus to perfectly drawn arrows and reduce its effect in PvP. Imagine getting a stacking crit damage buff for each perfectly drawn arrow you land.

  • Or at least have the damage and/ or charge rate scale with the base draw speed. It currently gives 2.5X more damage, but DPS and overall damage are ultimately higher just by rapid firing perfect draws. So using Leviathans Breath as the example, which the gloves only buff the arrow and not the explosion, it has a base draw speed of I think 1.328 or something like that. 2.5+1.328=3.828, that should be it's damage multiplier. Alternatively, if the bow has a base draw speed of 0.540, then the gloves should charge no slower than that. Of course, basically reworking the gloves to give precision instrument to the bow is certainly an option. We already have Lucky Pants increasing damage for HCs by up to 450%, Peacekeepers increasing SMG damage by up to 100% and stacking with perks like Target Lock and Ravenous Beast. I can't remember if warlocks have such an exotic, but they do have some that buff abilities greatly. Verity's Brow actually buffs the grenade on Song of Flame for example.
