the words bow and nerf should never be spoken in the same sentence. ever . Like at all. You should apologize for even typing this.

  • I’m not saying bows need a nerf I’m saying that the bow swap to hc needs a nerf. A bow can take you down to a 1 tap body shot with most hc’s and the swap time to a hc is ridiculously fast. Only things faster are 1 tap weapons and terraba if the perk is procked. If anything bow draw time needs a buff.

  • Ehh though? Bows are already the worst weapons in terms of TTK value. Choose literally any weapon archetype and I can guarantee you that it can kill faster than a bow. Even when every bow only needs 2 crits for a kill, you factor in draw time and you begin to understand why they’re not at the top: their TTK sucks in comparison to the rest of the sandbox. You wanna take a guess of why the HC/bow swap exists? It’s because bows on their own cannot compete with anything else in a straight up gunfight. Trust me, you try dueling a hand cannon or a pulse or anything else with a bow, out on the open, and you’re dead before you can draw the second arrow. The quick swap combo is what gives bows more value in dueling scenarios. But it’s not even that much, because at the end of the day, Monarque is the most used bow in competitive crucible, and it’s not anywhere near the top 10 (it’s even less used in quickplay) Go check destiny tracker and look at the data, it’s quite average if you look at the bigger picture.
