Every single bow has incorrect arrow paths, with arena out I've played a lot of each and I've noticed that the crosshair isn't the issue, it's the bows themselves.

For example on barb throwing axe doesn't deviate from its path indicator no matter where you are to your opponent distance or height wise.

Longbow either shoots under or over the guide line depending on where in the arc it is and relative position between you and the target, so there is a small Goldilocks one where it's correct but it's around the very edge of the distance multiplier distance.

Shortbow and recurve bow both randomly shoot somewhere near the crosshair but not on it, and where it shoots feels random depending on what room you are in. I usually test shoot at a random thing in every room I enter just to see what kind of extra lead I need to use there.

I haven't tested the crossbows or the handbows much but I'm pretty sure the Crossy also has the short/recurve bow issue

I am talking about the standard bow attack, maybe it's not an issue for your device or something but alot of us have misleading crosshair placement relative to where the bow actually fires. Since crosshair/arc line works fine for the other ranged weapons I assume the bows themselves are shooting slightly off where the devs think it is. But with such small arrows that minor difference is huge especially at longer ranges

Hmm, that is true. I haven't had much issue using the Long Bow. I just prefer to use the Short Bow because of more arrow capacity.

Wait yall get a guideline? lmao

The pathing is off because they keep adjusting the arrow speed without adjusting the arrow pathing to compensate for the new travel speed

#

Its easier to make number go up than to redo its trajectory and retical

That makes sense, they need to fix it it's so bad imo

Also love how we have a stance skill that's useless

Like if u sit there and just fling arrows. From withing range it's always slightly but enough off.

#

Also say another issue he doesn't mention is long bow skill. Doesn't always impact players it hits based on elevation issues

#

So the fire doesn't always tick

#

And that's anywhere from 25-40damage. That's not being accounted for

I’ll get my rogue there before the weekend 😆 but I don’t have the cloud anymore- the ThunderStrikeMage height feels better- I really need to play with the blizzard more tho.
