Bow makin' people mad

Hey guys,
I haven't pvp for a long time. So, I tried something different without critical hits. In general, bow makin' people mad

Almost non-BS and non-parry PvP videos:
Part one: bow only
Part two: bow only + Leo ring

Regards,
Ribosome

Great vids!
Phantom hits are making some of your opponents look like pincushions.

I use Composite Bow myself. It's a great weapon to punish casters and to bait people. The damage is pretty low and the arrows fly a bit too slow imo. Even though, it's very useful and can be deadly in the right hands.

I think I found right math. formula for those so called phantom hits. I will try to explain them in bow damage tutorial. Maybe will be pure speculation but I will try anyway.

Agree, comp. bow as a secondary weapon can be quite handy. In my opinion damage done from c. bow is quite high, 300 without Leo, and up to 500 with Leo. In same extreme cases you can get over 700.

As a bow user myself, I'm very interested in this.

I'm mostly fighting in Burg, so it's hard to get enough space to use the bow and some players are overly aggresive when they see a bow. Nothing like parrying those guys.

I dislike that the arrows are so slow that simple strafing makes them miss. I try to aim manually as much as I can and aim for headshots, especially for killing blow, because of the awesome animation your opponent does on headshot kill.
