They totally destroyed Scout rifles to promote use of bows. They gave bows the gambit catch up mechanism LOL. Just sad. You can have a perfect roll on a scout and still not have a weapon you would bother using. Not a good idea taking weapons out of such a shallow loot pool as this game has.

Sure seems that way, I get the appeal of the bows and they should have a high damage model given the one shot mechanic. But Scouts should still out dps them overall. If they dropped the range of bows or gave then a damage drop off then Scouts would have more use in certain aspects. They still need a buff though, and more perk options.

Bows really suck. Theyre too slow so you need to give up your Shotgun and use a Primary to kill close range red bars quickly. Just like Snipers theres nothing in PvE that needs that much range. They just feel out of place

Subtly calamity disagrees.

Editado por Mara Sov’s Step Bro: 11/24/2018 11:16:41 AMMeh fire rate still too low to effectively take out red bars as fast or better than a AR, SCR, PR or HC Bows carried me 40 light below the campaign and I really do like them but in strikes and raids where theyre needed to quickly kill everything they just feel out of place. Theyre very high skill niche weapon.

Mine has dragonfly, archers tempo and draw time masterwork. I soled shattered throne with it. I also use arsenic bite in PvP with smugglers word sidearm and it wrecks.

Yea thats all great but Im saying in activities with hordes of enemies that must die immediately they just arent the best, namely the raid and NFs. PvP is a different game altogether and you can take as much time as you need with shattered throne (Just like I said with the campaign I was 40 levels below) Theres reasons beyond just skill celing that bows arent anywhere near PvE meta. Rather than wearing rose tinted glasses about the situation its better to acknowledge these obvious flaws so they can be addressed and made better for everyone who uses them or wants to use them.

Don't nerf bows, scouts need a buff. Bows in PvP are good for team play and 1 shorting enemy's. Scouts should be better for consistent fire and damage, which there not right now.
-
Bows don't have a range damage falloff but they do have a damage falloff if you don't shoot them in the perfect shot time frame of like 1/2s when the bow is first fully drawn
-
They gave them a buff a while back and after that they are STILL absolute garbage on PVE. This applies to other weapons as well. Many weapons in the game are just trash. It is sad after all these years to see the developer act like they can't have any form of weapon balance. It simply isn't true they just try to rotate to weapons they want used in the game.
-
Yeah, it's always been that way with Bungie. They believe a rotating meta keeps pvp fresh. Scouts should never be nerfed this hard though. They wanted bows to be successful so they gave them incredible range and damage while nerfing scout firing rate and damage.
