How to Use the Glowblast Sharpshot Bow

Long-Range Combat

The Sharpshot Bow deals the most damage and tear among all the bows in the game and is best used against targets at a far distance. Though they have slow draw speed, they have incredibly high accuracy and range when stationary and shot at full draw.

Plasma Elemental Damage

This weapon inflicts Plasma damage on enemies, which causes the Plasma Blast state. The Plasma Blast state causes a time-delayed explosion on the target. Plasma elemental damage is also more effective against some enemies.

What Does Plasma Damage Do?

Tear Precision Arrows

Though Tear Precision Arrows deal siginficantly less impact damage than most arrow types, they have exceptionally high tear damage which can be used to tear off components from enemies.
