Bow or Crossbow for BH

[Altheo 42]

Just wondering why we don't have Bow or cross bow weapon for BH. Pistol is cool but a cross bow or a 2 hand bow will look cool too.

Goes against the concept. Additionally for short time a ranger thrown around. They might still be hilding off for it. I think the BH was the ranger ultimately though

[Altheo 42]

Yeah, agree that BH is ultimate with reference to a ranger but, I don't think having a bow goes against the BH concept. I still think it will look cool.

Would love it if an entirely new class is introduced. It'll definitely be interesting.

And yup, it'll be nice if there are more varieties for weapon types, or costumes so that everyone will look different.

When I started I thought the pistols were so out of place amongst all the myth and magic that I don't touch the BH for a couple of months!

Yeah that too . I have the same thoughts. My mage go walking with a stick and my warrior with a sword and board then here comes the BH with a high powered gun .
Sanctum Yeah a new class and new weapon sets will still be nice. I bet they are already preparing for the configurable skin since they have the helm off function now.

Altheo 42 Hopefully It'll be nice.

I was glad to find this suggestion. When I joined the game, I was disappointed not to find a bow-wielding option. I love ranger/archer types, and agree a bow could still fit with BH theme. I hope bows come in at some point. Would immediately become my main character!

+ 1 to this idea. This could work in several different ways:
1- Make bow a 2-Hand weapon, with higher min/max damage (but lower speed) than a 2-pistol set.
2- Make bow main hand weapon, similar average damage as other weapons, but could use a different range from pistols. Also add arrows/quiver as an offhand item; similar to a mage's tome, arrows would be used to add more damage, but they could also offer different bonuses - perhaps adding a poison/chilling/burning effect to the shots, or even an AS bonus, similar to dual-wielding.
