Bows are hardly used anymore?!
This is mainly about Bows in PVE. What do you guys think?

Have a week rolled bow with dragonfly and archers tempo It works well but needs help in higher end content
-
I love bows, but they don’t seem right. I think they need a buff, but I don’t know in what area.
-
I use the bow from gos quite a lot it’s fun...
-
Bows are OK at best. I enjoy using them but they should have more power in PvE. As for PvP? Weird place and most players use them to wound opponents and switch to another weapon. I don't remember when it happened but I can no longer OHK with a bow while standing in an Empowering Rift.

Bows and barrier champions SMH I loaded my 1004 Hunter into a 980 Pyramidian to test out my 970 Accuted Redemption with explosive payload and anti barrier mod, its garbage, straight up hot trash. Bows need a PVE buff
-
They're fine, but for 980 content, they're terrible for Barrier Champions.
-
Only good bow ATM is Hush. They need good damage buff in PvE, lets say 15%
-
I think they are fine but a little seasoning wouldnt hurt them at all.
-
The aim assist and tracking and generous hitboxes are kinda ridiculous

2 RepliesEdited by AendettV: 2/9/2020 5:03:21 PMI first mentioned bows being in Destiny back during The Dark Below, so I've wanted to see them in the gane for a long time. I think Bungie did a really good job with them, but I don't really use them. I think they're just not practical. Say you're doing Pit of Heresy, there is no point in the dungeon where a bow would be more useful than a scout rifle. I guess that translates to them not working well for Bungies "swamp you with trash mobs" playstyle. Too slow to clear adds like that, and not powerful enough to take on boomer knights. Another example would be in Gambit while trying to get Hush. I never finished that quest because sitting back and shooting things is really not my playstyle. I just ended up killing a bunch of adds and couldn't get them cleared out fast enough to grab motes before they disappeared. I guess the damage needs to be buffed in PvE by quite a bit, and the fire rate increased. I don't know, bows are like swords. I just don't use them.

I like my bow but it definitely feels weak compared to some other options. I feel like it used to be stronger...
