Overview

How it plays

Quick-draw gets you a bargain-bin arrow. Bend it like you mean it and you get an elemental explosion that leaves a lingering puddle - and if you have the right spell queued, it is considerably more exciting than a bargain-bin arrow. The Bow is a setup tool dressed as a sidearm.

Strategy

Save the full charge for groups. Fire into a cluster, let the puddle settle, then run a spell through it for combo damage. Overdraw turns the full charge into a three-arrow spread; Ultra Draw turns it into something much larger and slower. Both improve with Bend Speed upgrades.

Strengths

  • Charged shots create elemental puddles for spell combos · Single-magazine size makes Consumer joker essentially free · Burst damage against enemy groups on a full draw

Weaknesses

  • Quick-draw shots are genuinely underwhelming · Slow overall fire rate · Reserve ammo is limited. Ammo Bag upgrades help
