Hello, I've noticed some huge inconsistencies while using the new Monarque exotic bows. As it's stated, on a perfect draw arrows should apply poison, and on precision hits trigger an AoE explosion; however, the perk does not work properly when hitting enemies over long distances, sometimes even at medium ones.
I've tested this extensively using Oathkeeper gauntlets which guarantee perfect drawing every time - thus eliminating human error on the perfect draw - and both the damage over time and the explosion seem to not trigger at all when the enemy is far away, which is a shame considering bows are excellent at those distances.

I've recently gotten this bow and noticed something is off, the perk seem to proc inconsistently , i thought i was not doing the perfect draw or maybe lag or something, after watching the video it really IS a bug.

Edited by FdYAcsoyPKN83gLE: 1/2/2019 6:02:54 AMMaybe it should be part of the weapons perk to reduce frustration and toxicity.

2 RepliesHi DaveRabbit. Thanks for reaching out to us about this. If possible, could you provide a video of the perk not working as intended? It may help us in an investigation.

There is no explosion. Poison spreading to other enemies is not an AoE explosion it is the chaining of DoT...

I’m going to test this out a bit later for sure! Kind of interested now.

11 RepliesThe full description of the Poison Arrows perk is: [quote]Arrows fired [i]quickly[/i] after a full draw become poison arrows. Precision hits with poison arrows spread poison to nearby enemies.[/quote] In other words, if you wait for too long, the Poison Arrows perk will not trigger.
