Bows have ruined PvP

These weapons take no skill and are basically a free sniper with super aim assist. [spoiler]you ready for these posts after the shotgun nerfs. I personally enjoy the bows but I can see it happening[/spoiler] I have to say this post has more attention than anything else ive posted, goes to show you just need a catch title to draw everyone in, thank you to those who have been commenting and enjoying the fun, [spoiler]as well to those who dont get the joke![/spoiler]

  • [quote]These weapons take no skill and are basically a free sniper with super aim assist. [/quote] LOL... I'm absolute garbage with a Bow in PVP but I seem to get wrecked by them all the time. I look at this as me needing to up my game and get more practice with the bow. Challenge Accepted!

    • So you are saying that you started a joke post to spread hate? You are sick. But then again, the internet is full of attention seeking whores who use any method they can to feel like they are important. So good on you, keep on being part of the problem and sucking up valuable oxygen that could have been used by a cockroach or some other much more useful creature than yourself.

      • Bungie forums are a social experiment to see how dumb the general population is. No one even bothered to read more than the first sentence lol

            • It's post like this that brought us D2. Do you really want to see the future of Destiny be D2? I know you had the disclaimer where you saying "you were just kidding", but Bungie doesn't see anything but title's and the first few words of a post. You all need to stop this shit and just play the game.

                • Nerf Arrows! make the bow a Melee Weapon you can strangle them with! then brush their hair... and tell them they are pretty, before putting the lotion on their skin

                      • Quality satirical post...not quite funny as it should be since the Nerfherding Empire really is striking back.

                        • Have you tried... Not standing still in known lanes & sight-lines? Jokes aside bows aren’t even ohko so they’re in a pretty good place imo. If someone 2 shots you they got a headshot or you were damaged already, so it is what it is. Respect skilled bow users [spoiler]tho the headshot magnetism on the bolts can be a little ridiculous sometimes I will admit[/spoiler]

                            I just love seeing the glint of a sniper scope downrange, then thwack my arrow plants itself into their skull or shoulder, 🏃 they break cover and thud my second arrow drops them dead, take your sniper elsewhere guardian it's a Bowman's game now.😁

                            To be fair the way you can abuse the quick peek and shoot is kinda unfair considering it’s essentially a primary weapon fight you’re in with a bow most of the time.. archers tempo makes using bows almost unfair a lot of times if you are good at snap shotting, aim assist or not, if you’re good at that, bows become super strong with the quick peek and shoot “tactic” I’ve had like a 20% win rate in 1v4 primary weapon fights at mid to long range with my bow and a lot of those times I’ll get hit for maybe half my shield or so lol

                            • I haven’t tried a bow yet... being a Titan main I see it as a Hunter weapon. I guess I’m just weird lol.

                              • In the few Crucible matches I have done on my PC and PS4 account so far, I have yet to see anyone using a bow. It's mostly shotguns, skilled players with snipers and Sleeper Simulant.

                                • Its.. a 2 shot kill and they charge a bit slow, not to mention you have to be on your game with those things and you have to hit the head.. And the shotguns have limited range, only have 2 bullets so if you miss you are screwed, and to get a one shot you have to be at point blank..

                                  • Bows? Really? Bows are basically LFRs that 2 shot and require at least 1 head shot. I tried bows in PVP and I quickly stopped. I wreck anyone with a bow.

                                      • IMO shotguns ruined PvP for me a long time ago. Bows promote better gun fights which I enjoy.

                                        • The only bow I like so far is the Aresenic Bite-4B with Archer’s Tempo perk and a lightweight frame.

                                          • Really bows now . First it’s vigilance , then it’s graviton then it’s sleeper . Then we’re back to vanilla d2. Ffs man don’t you ever learn your lesson . Bows are hardly an issue in pvp
