How to Get Bows

Looted from Bow Racks in Encampments

Bow Weapon Rack

Bows can be looted from bow racks scattered around Main Encampment POIs. These same racks can also have a chance to spawn in the small, unmarked enemy encampments that you drop at when first starting an expedition.

Map Icon Meanings

Press Y (Xbox), Triangle (PS5), or V (PC) to Find Bow Racks on the Map

Detailed Map View Showing Bow Racks
Detailed View Toggle
Y Button / Triangle Button / V

To easily find POIs with Bow Racks, open your map and press Y (Xbox), Triangle (PS5), or V (PC) to switch over to the detailed map view. In this mode, your map will show you which POIs will net you bows, staves, sacred seals, flasks, and map clues.

Can be Looted from Ruined Towers

Ruined Towers with Bow Racks

The unmarked, ruined towers that dot the landscape of Limveld will usually have one bow rack that you can loot for a potential bow, greatbow, crossbow, or ballista.

If you're playing as Ironeye, these are great mini detours you can take if you want a quick upgrade from your starting weapon (especially since these are usually found near starting spawn locations).

What are Bows?

Preferred Weapon Type of Ironeye

Ironeye Bow

Bows are the preferred weapons for Ironeye, as his character abilities function best when equipped with Bows. Ironeye's Ultimate Art Single Shot also requires a bow-type weapon, making them essential when playing as Ironeye.

Ironeye Character Guide and Abilities

Ranged Weapons with High Mobility and Rate of Fire

Bows have low Attack Power with a fast rate of fire, making them best suited for Nightfarers who prioritize the Dexterity stat.

In Nightreign, weapons don't have stat requirements. Unlike in the original game, all Nightfarers will be able to use all weapons found during a match.

Best for Mobile Long Range Attackers

Bows have a fast rate of fire compared to Greatbows and Crossbows, though they have a lower damage output. You'll need to remain mobile, unleashing a flurry of attacks before repositioning yourself to remain safe while applying damage to your enemies.
