bow light and heavy attacks

sirrmattus · May 2016

is there a reason the animation for the bow light and heavy attacks are the same slow volley? can we get this improved to be more like a strait line shot and faster

heavy is fine. light attacks look pathetic.

The snipe shot is more of a volley. You figured a snipe would be a strong blast, like a sniper shot or something. Be better if it's something lightning fast and fierce. For a heavy attack, the snipe looks pretty weak. Although, it does pack some damages, but slow as heck, though.

I see this complaint but I find that time useful at the beginning of a fight. By the time my first shot hits a second is on the way and a third is almost ready.

This delay is probably built in so the skill is not spammable with quick regularity. Makes sense as it hits so hard, but if Snipe was as fast as other Bow skills, it would be OP. So, like Crystal Fragments or Stone Giant, the built in delay/slowness provides some balance.

It's hilarious when I hit a rat standing at my feet with Snipe morphs, and the arrow has to go up and down really quickly to hit it. Mundus physics are bizarre...

It's not a complaint, really.. it does pack heat, especially in succession. More of a wishlist. A powerful lightning blast of an arrow would better fit its name. Maybe as an ultimate ability of the bow.
