THE WHITE NINJA - PVP archery fail

Recommended Posts

So I saw a video saying the improvised bow was inaccurate yet powerful.  Wanted to test out that theory, and I came to find out only one of those is true!

Yes, I realize I was shooting in 3rd person, but for some reason I couldn't draw the bow in 1st person.  Something with my game or controls...

The second guy I hit with the bow was:

1) shot in the chest with a mosin

2) shot in the torso with the bow

3) hit 3 times with the pickaxe

4) finally killed by a head shot by Shady

so...the bow definitely is not as powerful as advertised.  I would love to see the accuracy and power improved because it is a fun weapon to PVP with.

You didnt fully draw the bow, you have to draw it all the way back and then shoot

The improvised bow is powerful, and shouldn't be underestimated. You just need to learn how to properly use it.

 

Aggathor made a nice video about it.

But if you wanna see a skillful player with it, have some tips and learn to become deadly with it, watch this instead!!!

In the one video, the second one. I love when he says "My rule is never shoot at something farther than 80 Meters

 

LOL never shoot at anything farther than 30 Meters If what id say

Yup, I actually watched both vids before I made my bow.  They were both good and I learned alot, although he says the torso is a guaranteed one hit kill which is not true in 0.49 at least.  He also says a leg hit is a guaranteed fracture which is also not true because you can see Friendly in Cherno gets shot in the leg at the end of his video but he's still walking around.   I understand all the mechanics he's talking about, but I shot two people with it on my first go so it was a good time nonetheless.  Sometimes mechanics go out the window when you're in the middle of Elektro fighting people with guns and you have some sticks and rope.  Definitely a challenge.  This video was just for laughs and to show how difficult it can be to PVP with the bow on a full pop in the city.  I think WOBO said it's the worst ranged weapon in standalone.  I would have to agree.

Watch the Aggathor video that Odin posted, you can see around 3:30 when he's talking about rapid fire that you don't need to fully draw the bow.

He still fully draws it when he rapid fires.
