I'm a bow main and I'm far from the only one. I am excited about Beyond Light, but I am very worried now that you've implemented sunsetting. Compared to other weapons (like hand cannons and pulse rifles), we've seen very few bows released since Forsaken launched. Now that Beyond Light is imminent, there are very few that will be valid in the coming content. Half of the already small offering of legendary bows will be obsolete in a week. Point of the Stag is no longer attainable, and of the three exotics (four counting the heavy), only one has a catalyst, and we still have no solar exotic bow. One of the unintended consequences of sunsetting gear is that I feel this will leave some players wanting to use Exotic Primaries for some measure of consistency, and this will affect bow users in particular because of how few options there are. The game already poorly balances exotic power weapons so they feel mandatory, and until exotic primaries can load anti-champion mods, they definitively handicap players in most aspirational content (personally I am hoping that my Falling Guillotine and Komodo-4FR will put in a lot of work for me next year, but time will tell). So what am I asking for? Just please keep us in mind, and consider us moving forward. However, in the spirit of constructive feedback, here are some requests: 1. I am hoping for multiple new legendary bows in Beyond Light, the return of Point of the Stag, or else a way to access kinetic precision bows through the equivalent of umbral engrams, so we have an easily farmable primary weapon. 2. I am hoping for a solar exotic bow (possibly themed around the melting of ice.. get it?). 3. I am hoping to see more legendary heavy bows (Leviathan's Breath can stagger, and does large-radius AoE, so a legendary version would just do high precision damage, with possibly a small-radius AoE). 4. Finally, I am hoping to see catalysts for Wish-Ender, Le Monarque, and Leviathan's Breath. Exotic Primaries don't need to be extinct, but the ability to drop orbs is important to higher-end content. So we either need catalysts for exotic weapons when they launch as standard operating procedure, or we need the ability to masterwork exotic weapons for the ability to drop orbs divorced from the catalyst. Thank you SO much for your time and consideration. I love this game. I love your work as a company. I've been playing Bungie games since Pathways into Darkness. I only want to see it get even better. See ya starside. ---------------------------------------------------------- EDIT: I wanted to provide an update to this thread now that Beyond Light has launched. I've got good news and bad news. That said, my fingers are crossed for the future, AND I am keeping a close eye on future updates because bow gameplay is important to me. 1. According to light.gg, Beyond Light has introduced 1 new bow at launch. It is kinetic, but it has slightly confusing perks, and seems designed to be a support weapon and/or pvp bow, since it can run Killing Wind+Sympathetic Arsenal, or Quickdraw/Moving Target+Snapshot Sights, but the best it can do as far as PvE add-clearing seems to be Rapid Hit+Swashbuckler or Explosive Head. Yikes. 2. Point of the Stag is purchasable from the Exotic Archive next to the vaults! This is HUGE news for anyone who didn't get one during the season it released. It doesn't sunset this year, and is a precision frame with archer's tempo, so this could be useful to any precision-users who don't have a good Accrued Redemption roll (like me) and need a hold-me-over that's not exotic. 3. (new) Looks like there is no bow synergy on this season's artifact. Obviously that will change in future seasons, but I was really hoping (in vain) that we'd see more generic non-weapon-specific mods for breaking champions. I'm a little disappointed that they're still locking some of us into double-primaries if we want to run our weapon of choice. I'll add more to this as I come across new data. ----------------------------------------------------------
