| An alternative for those looking to quickly finish the early game stage. This bow improves more when you continue to pump it with Affinity. It also provides a defensive balance as it comes with 30 defense. However, it lacks the Affinity Arc shot which could be essential for adding more affinity to your build. |

| Build Merits | Bows are weapons that require a lot of stamina. With this in mind, this set offers a mix of offensive and utlity skills. Critical Eye increases your affinity while Constitution reduces stamina consumption of fixed actions such as dodging and blocking. This covers most of the bow's attacks as well! |

| Constitution ★★★ |
Reduces stamina costs of dodging which is vital to the Bow. |
| Stamina Surge ★★★ |
Increases stamina recovery and is vital for stamina heavy weapons. |
| Critical Eye ★★★ |
Increases affinitty. Always try to aim for at least 50-100% affinity. |
| Weakness Exploit ★★★ |
Increases your affinity on a monster's weak spots. A great skill for bow users. |
| Critical Boost ★★★ |
Amplifies critical hits. Make sure to have high affinity first before slotting in critical boosts! |
| Attack Boost ★★ |
Increasing the attack rating of bows is one of the most efficient ways to improve DPS. |
