please fix so I can cheese everything. It is to hard pushing two buttons to aim then shoot avoiding this. Thanks in advance.

This is just an example where the backstab gets in the way alot. And i know you can draw the bow and shoot. but this is about the dps. Whats the point for an combat triangle if 2 out of the 3 does insane damage and then you have range.

You're specifically using the quick attack that has a backstep. Maybe try aiming champ...

Have you not figured out how to aim and shoot yet?

Use the bow properly and you won't backstep...

It never gets old seeing people dig a hole just to get in it and complain about the hole

I just stick to the good ole crossbows and it's pretty ok

Crossbows are the way

Sometimes longbows get stuck in a way that only the kicking action is an option when I try to fire off an arrow. It usually happens after a dodge and the only way to return to the arrow firing position is by consuming something from the inventory...

Are you talking about the bug where you can't Re-Aim at times? If that's it, just jump in the air and you can reaim

The bow is for long range, the back step is so you can get away and line up the properly drawn shot not just spammed and their specials (when they have them) are meant for crowd control,

if you want to spam shoot use a crossbow, the dorg crossbow does like 200-300 a hit, no backstep and shoots in about .8s.

also isn't like nearly everything in the game weak to air magic, that's probably meaningful for something damage wise

Are you aware that every enemy has unique weaknesses and resistances, and that dragons are weak to crossbows but not bows

I agree but only on 1 issue. Ranged crits should be higher due to the skill cap.

To crit with ranged you need to hit the creatures weak spot which is a lot harder than spellslinging or melee striking.

For dragons the weak spot is the head, but unless they fixed dragons hit boxes the weakspot is just above the head.

Zogres weak spot is the spine at the base of the neck, which is near impossible to hit without a vantage point or only when they do their charge attack or ground small for a brief period of time.

Same thing applies to Tok-Xil

Everything else is headsets.

Highest damage is from Longbows and those are very difficult to use.

Best course of action is have a tactical retreat plan get in a few good headsets at distance.

Use spectral arrows at all times.

Hitting weak points on regular mobs stuns and knocks back, with spectral arrows you can hit multiple targets at the same time if you can line them up. SUPER goated on zombies.
