Who said time had to do with panic? I can turn a corner and see a sunsinger or guy with heavy ammo from afar and then shoot them with the bow, it tracks on and kills them or shuts down their super. Or you can turn a corner and somebody is going to shotgun you but the damage resistance will let you tank it and yes dead when you finish, and it actually about 2 seconds to shoot, almost just as fast as nova bomb.
