No more DW/Bow builds for PvE Stamblade?

I thought about returning and trying out the new chapter, but all of the updated builds I am finding are DW/2h. Are DW/Bow builds no longer a thing in ESO?

Stampede was buffed a lot, so most players have been using that on the back bar. Everything is changing next week though, and bow should be a good option again (at least close to greatsword).

You missed a lot, maelstrom 2H has been very strong but it’s getting cut roughly in half next patch. Maelstrom bow got buffed next patch, and bow skills in general are more responsive on the PTS

Bow is miles behind melee with this patch, but only a little behind melee next patch, but just pick the style you prefer. When I play stamblade I usually play up close (there are melee class skills on the bar) but keep using bows anyway
