(PSN)webreezy Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 We've been getting all these new weapons of all sorts and kinds, but I personally would like to know when we will see a new Bow and Arrow come into the game. There are numerous rifles, shotguns, snipers, but only three bows (excluding the Paris Prime). The bow gives a different play style to the game and as much as I love my dread, and have maxed out all the other bows, I was just wondering if you guys were ever going to create a new bow.

Irkie500 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I wouldnt mind a tenno styled compound bow, I think that would be pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordOfScrugging Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 there was an image of a new tenno bow being worked on in one of the live streams. i dont remember which one though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ_Redwire Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Some faction based bows would be cool imo (Grineer, Corpus, Infested, etc). Not sure how they'd fit into the lore but if I mean if the Corpus apparently made the Obex, a hand-to-hand gauntlet/feet weapon (do the corpus strike you as the hand-to-hand combat type?), then something like a bow doesn't really seem out of the realm of possibility from my perspective.

Llyssa Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) I think we're done with bows for a while. We have all 3 physical elements represented, and they seem more interested in new mechanics for weapons than for rehashes. I *do* think we might have an archwing bow somewhere down the line, but it hasn't been mentioned yet. EDIT: Oh. I missed that stream. Never mind.

Alphafox Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) From Devstream 37. Keep in mind that it doesn't mean that they will be released anytime soon since it's obviously still a concept. Edited October 10, 2014 by Alphafox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OriVerda Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I would adore a bow made out of streams of energy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FREQ1989 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Concept art devstream showed a bunch of bows that they have conceptualized. Hopefully they do another, but I don't know how it would fit with the others since we already have a impact, slash, and technically two puncture bows. I would love one that can get a higher crit chance than dread (without putting critical delay on it of course.) I wouldnt mind a tenno styled compound bow, I think that would be pretty cool. The paris is a compound bow, so I would love to see a Yumi styled bow in the game and couple it with huge crit. This would be one of my favorite weapons, but they have to get it right. Edit: As I wrote this someone posted the image, Number 5 is the Yumi style I would like in the game but not necessarily that exact concept.

Arlayn Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 From Devstream 37. Keep in mind that it doesn't mean that they will be released anytime soon. there is no they. Its simply concept art for 1 bow they were trying to capture an appearance for. They might use a few of them, but I think this is just a chart of art they drew up, and had someone pick from them all what the bow would look like.

[DE]Momaw Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) Currently we have the Dread which is really compact and kind of simple, and we have the Paris Prime which is implausibly elaborate and seems to be trying to be both a bow and a shield (and honestly looks kind of bad these days due to its early poor implementation of "gold"). What I would love to see is a recurve that is bigger than the Paris Prime nock to nock, but very slender and graceful. Have the limbs fold up to make it more compact on our back, but the unfolded size should be a good 1.5 meters. All of the concepts in the picture above are too bulky and too sinister. I want an "elvish" bow that implies rather than shows its high technology. Stats should be: Damage: 125 Charge time: 0.75 second Crit chance: 40% Crit mult: 2x Status chance: 60% This gives it less damage than the other endgame bows and no chance of red crits, but better status performance and faster draw time.

A new bow could fit. For example. A Corpus Hunter bow where the string, and arrow is made of pure energy, and does electric, or fire damage. Like maybe the arrow of pure energy shocks you, or the arrow of pure energy sears through your body as it punches through like a super intense heat laser.

AridTeflon Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 I want a purely elemental Bow. Screw Slash and Puncture. Slash is overrated and Puncture proc seems too week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AM-Bunny Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Bows: Paris, Paris prime, mk1 Paris, Cernos, Dread Snipers: Lanka, Vectis, Vulkar Obviously omitting weapons no longer available. Just sayin, snipers should be up first IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So its more like Paris, Cernos, and Dread.Paris prime has a completely different look and stats. It should be counted separately, since there's no resemblance besides the name. Plus if we're not counting trash tier weapons, snipers are down to two. I'm not trying to argue, a new bow would be nice, just found it interesting OP specifically mentioned how we've gotten "numerous" snipers...Edit: I forgot, Attica is officially a bow now too, right?

Lanka, Vectis, and Vulkar are still snipers. What are you talking about down by two? Also Attica is a Crossbow. Huge difference in design, and function. Mk-1 Paris is a beginner copy of Paris with weaker stats, and Paris prime is a stronger version of Paris, but is a Prime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is still talking about the future of bows on Warframe. Just based on a what do we have more of, and should other weapons be more of a priority over bows type deal. Which is still the same.
