Vma bow vs master bow vs asylum bow

I just need your opinion on Which bow is better so I know what to farm

Vma bow

I believe vMA bow is still best. Asylum bow is...to put it really nice, lacking. A lot.

I heard Gilliam on one of his videos mention you need to let the first tick of endless hail hit the enemy before bar swapping to get the extra damage, so keep that in mind.

What do you want to do with the Bow. They are all the best one in different situations.
-For PvE-DPS MSA
-PvP on the Backbar DSA
-PVP ganker perhaps Asylum(haven't tested this yet.

(this is only my opinion)^^

There is no "one bow to rule them all". You need to tell us what you want to do with it so we know which one to recommend.

Ulfgarde · October 2017

Master bow

MSA for PvE
DSA for PvP

mb10 · October 2017

Master bow

For PVP ^

Asardes · October 2017

Vma bow

Maelstrom for PvE
Master for PvP

NyassaV · October 2017

Master bow

vMA for PvE always but a masters is very good if you don't have that. Masters is very strong in PvP. Asylum is just a zerg weapon or maybe a bowtard might use it well

Its why I said your opinion, as in the content you play so I can hear it from different perspectives

bloodthirstyvampire · October 2017

I could get master and use it in vma to help me out with getting a bow

Lmao. Now you know that the double bow build folks are going to be appearing everywhere now, right?

I use an infused Master's Bow in PvP and love it. Poison Injection is a staple skill for most Stam builds, and don't ever equip a bow without it. The extra damage really helps with burst in this heavy armor meta that won't die no matter what ZOS does to try to kill it.

I use a Nirnhoned Maelstrom bow in PvE, and there's really nothing you can do as a Stam build to increase your DPS quite like equipping this bow. This puppy was Defending before I transmuted it, and it instantly increased my single target DPS by about 4K without even adjusting my rotation. Now with a better trait and a refined rotation, I'm in a much better spot than I'd ever be without it.

Asylum bow? Never used it. Don't have one. Could make it as an interesting piece on a Bow/Bow PvP build. But I don't see myself playing with it regularly if/when I get one.

Lord_Eomer · October 2017

Wrong poll, no comparison between VMA with other two as vma for pve and Asylum/VDSA for PVP

Master bow

Hello, guys. I don't want to read description of bows and think what would be better for me. But I like to flood on the forum so...

Vma bow

As soon as you use Endless Hail, so in every Stamina PvE Build, vMA-bow is BIS. The damage boost is just so massive.
Master is okaish if you don't have a vMA one in PvE, in PvP it's better as you won't use Endless Hail.
Asylum is in my opinion utterly useless.

Get vma first and help to clear every other PvE content.

Maelstrom bow is best in slot for pve stam builds. Nothing else even comes close to the dps it beings.

Master bow is a very strong option for pvp. Especially when combined with an infused Berserker enchant, you are looking at 700+ weapon damage spike.

Asylum bow is mostly trash unless you really like big numbers. It's usually better to just fire off two snipes from ultra long range if you are running a bow ganker.

Vma bow

VMA for PvE
Master for PvP
Asylum for trolls.

Jusey1 · October 2017

I personally don't know the effects of all three bows from the top of my head but I did got an Asylum bow on my 2nd try and thought it would be pretty back-up weapon for my Nightblade... Ya know, use the morph of Arrow Spray to lockdown the mobs, turn invisible, and get a sneak critical off with another bow ability with the Asylum damage boost on top of it... It might hurt quite a bit, but my Nightblade isn't max level quite yet so I hadn't tested it out to see how it works.

Granted, I'm not saying it is good or bad. Just that is what first came to mind personally when I got the bow.

Ah indeed, its always important to try and conflate players you dislike with derogatory terms for those with disabilities. That way you can denigrate both those with disabilities and those you disagree with.

For universal use the VDSA bow is best, it is a very good option in pvp if not the best, and a decent option in pve.

For PVE only, nothing compares to the VMA bow.

For PVP only, asylum has some theoretical use. It has no value for pve.

bloodthirstyvampire · October 2017

So asylum is is going to be really good lets nerf it in to the ground is that it

Saint_Bud · October 2017

Vma bow for pve,
for pvp master bow is a good option for some builds, not all

Aerithone · October 2017

Vma bow

As double-bow sorc in pve i use both msa and dsa bows.

IronCrystal · October 2017

Vma bow

Nothing comes close to vma bow in pve.

Can't comment from personal experience in pvp, but the boost to poison injection from vdsa bow is nice in pvp.

Bobby_V_Rockit · December 2017

Asylum bow

ALL GLORY TO THE MIGHTY ASYLUM STAFF!

Jade1986 · December 2017

That depends on content. VMA and master for pve, and asylum for pvp.

scipionumatia · December 2017

Infused with weapon damage enchant.
Defending otherwise.

DeadlyRecluse · December 2017

Master bow

Masters bow is dang effective in PvP.

Vma bow

Nirnhoned. May not be the best, but it’s pretty good.
