Bows are trash, period. Bungie need to buff them so they 1 shot headshot.

Bad idea, bows are fairly hard to duel if they get the first shot and a headshot.
-
If that were the case I would be a god in PVP. Unfortunately they don't one shot and it should be kept as such.

Please god no. Please. I beg you.

The only way a bow could ever be balanced and have the ability to one shot on top of using kinetic ammo is if bungie makes all bows projectile weapons. Players would have to lead their shots on moving targets and hitbox for the projectiles would have to be the smallest in the game. Basically bungie would have to make it work like Hanzo from overwatch in order for this to even be considered. I would be down for this considering we need more skill weapons in the game. It would be amazing vs shotgun and fusions too if the player has the skill to lead shots

Sorry, but they are not hitscan. They are projectiles like rockets. Incredibly fast ones, but still projectiles.
-
A fully drawn arrow is hitscan
-
Until fully drawn. There was a patch note about it aggess ago

Edited by Verke0: 3/15/2022 4:47:26 PMOh really? I didnt know that. But why cant i hit someone at certain angles because the arrow ends up sticking in a wall/corner? That shouldnt happen if it is true hitscan, right?

Even if it wasn’t hitscan, its too easy to use them if you really wanted them to have the power to one shot. The arrows currently wether they are hitscan or not are insanely fast, there are no shots that need to be predicted and charge times are insanely fast. My reply still makes sense, if you guys want bows to one shot, the arrows cannot be as fast as they currently are and the size of the arrows need to be much smaller in order to be considered balanced.
-
I never said they should one-shot. Hell no! Imagine that, lol
-
Well it wouldn’t be OP if they had actual travel time. Have you ever played overwatch? If bows behaved the same way hanzo’s bow works in that game then bows in this game would be fairly balanced even if they were able to one shot. Bows would be an insanely high skill weapon and honestly this game desperately needs more of that.
-
I think bows are fine the eay they are. No need for major changes.

In my hands, bows are god-tier. I have over 25k kills with them alone, and at least a 3rd of those are crucible kills.
-
I have 28000 kills with Le monarque. Its my favorite weapon, lol.

[quote]I have 28000 kills with Le monarque. Its my favorite weapon, lol.[/quote] ya know with any other bow id respect that
-
Haha, i get that. Ive been using it since black armory. It is the most synergetic weapon around imo.
-
Yeah, I think I’ll pass on that.
-
Lol that is just stupid to have as an actual opinion
-
When they came out originally a good deal of them were 1 shot head shots. But it could fire faster and more accurately than a sniper at any range so it was nerfed. I haven’t tried it yet because I don’t use bows much anymore, however, Wish Ender should still 1 shot. But not at range.

You about to get the entire community up in arms. This would be would cancer.
