An Idea For Multishot With Bows ( 2 Arrows Are Loaded When The Proc Is Activated ).

[__Kanade__]

It would be cool to see multishot work differently with a bow, when the proc is activated, you'll load up 2 arrows instead the usual one. It's not uncommon to see someone being able to fire upto 3 arrows at once ( or 4 arrows at once if your Legolas ), plus with this nifty little feature, it would allow you to prioritize targets if we see that we have 2 arrows at the ready instead of one.

 

It would also add some nice visual flare to the bow.

Sounds good

Or you can play normally with how rifle Multishot normally works. 90% of the time you're firing two arrows at max rank anyways. Besides, i think your suggestion would require Multishot being reworked, as i think that the Multishot procs when the arrow is loosed, not knocked. Sure, a visual cue of when you're going to be firing two arrows instead of one would be nice, but when you're only firing a single arrow 10% of the time i don't think that it's really necessary.

Multishot actually shoots 2 arrows.
Shoot into a wall, you'll see both of them stuck there.

Also an abuse could come of this, people could just cancel the shot if the don't see two arrows, negating the fact its a 90% chance

Negating the shot is still kind of a hindrance I guess and can be seen more of as a tactic than abuse, lol

But that is a good point nonetheless

I was about to say this. I'd have 100% multishot with the min rank mod.

It could, but if it was reworked for bows specifically, you would still need to fire a previous shot, so you wouldn't be able to cancel a shot, or keep switching between side arm and bow in hopes that you get 2 arrows, it won't activate the proc unless you've already fired a shot an even then it still needs the chance, then if you see 2 arrows at the ready, then you can wait for the right moment to pick your target. So trying to exploit the feature wouldn't help to try an get 2 arrows without firing off a previous shot first. And if you switch to side arm or used your melee and you have 2 arrows at the ready, the proc is cancelled out and your back to just the one arrow until you start firing off a few shots again until the proc is activated.

 

This is if it was reworked instead of how it works currently for bows.
