Bow PvP Builds

In PvP the Bow is known for its ability to play at any distance and still be capability of some of the highest burst damage out of any weapon. It is easy to use, but it can be challenging to learn how to shoot at a distance. The Bow excels with proper positioning and coordinated shooting. If you can focus on squishy targets, you are sure to have a fun time.

The Bow will always have high damage output. The Rapier allows for a user to play more aggressive because of the plethora of mobility and survivability options at your disposal.

Bow and Hatchet Build

The Bow is a high damage ranged weapon that will always use its secondary for its support and utility. For those who do not want a high mobility secondary, the Hatchet can be great for surviving bursts of damage from other ranged players, or to survive and break out of crowd-control from melee.
