Can we get a Corpus Bow? I know that the Ferrox is pretty much the Corpus equivalent of a bow, but I just think it'd be cool to use a futuristic looking bow that shot lightning bolts instead of arrows. Also, I don't know if there's a "Fan concept" subdivision on the forums, but if there is one, this should probably be put there. Or maybe in "Weapons". I'm really not sure.

It would likely be an awful lot of work but I'd love to see a new corpus enemy that uses such a weapon as well.  Corpus archer just sounds evil.

Oh man, there was an epic bow thread in 2016 with great ideas.

Stuff like repeating pattern of say... square, circle triangle, and the most recent three you fired formed a pain field between them if they were close enough. Or alternate firing positive and then negative arrows, with alt fire that made the most recent two snap together and hit everything between, or pull the two enemies you hit and smack them together. Firing a start, middle and finish and then the fourth shot does bonus damage/aoe/whatever for each of the previous arrows it passes if it passes them in order. Unstable matter and anti-matter so you'd have to be really accurate and really fast to get them both on target and close enough but if you did... kabooooommm.... 

I remember these because all the different ideas based on patterns in the arrows you pull out, stuck out to me as Corpus-sounding, even though they were thought up for other factions or presented without a faction.

Not really but why not, can't be half as bad as sapper circles or corpus techs.
