What happens if you increase a bow's magazine to 2 with Primed Magazine Warp?

[Hmm...interesting.]

I don't have the endo to find out right now, but does anything interesting happen when a bow's magazine is increased to 2? Like maybe an instant second shot or +100% multishot?

Last time I saw anyone try it (with a riven) and get above +100% magazine size, the answer turned out to be "it does absolutely nothing."

This turned out to be because bows are specially coded such that they only load one arrow at a time; this is done behind the scenes by making their actual clip size zero. And no matter how much of a percentage of zero you add to zero, you still get zero.

(On the other hand, for rivens, no matter how much percentage you subtract from zero, you also still get zero. So a decrease in magazine capacity is a great negative on a bow riven.)

That said, this was a couple of years ago, so I grant the answer may have changed. I suspect not, though.

Elaborating on why it did nothing.

Currently it'll change the Arsenal mag size, but it's never had any actual effect on bows, or anything else that pulls directly from ammo reserve.

Nothing... bow don't have magazines.

This its a mag, not a clip!
Out of jokes: Even if the number increases in the end it doesn't make any difference. Although it has a 2 in magazines it is only visual.

Proposal: increases to magazine size on bows should increase multi-shot.
