  • Land headshots or/and target weakened opponents for better arrow conserving.

Counters

Supported Maps

Weapon Setups

Other high damage or high fire rate weapons to help out with its DPS and for close range combat. You can also bring a weapon that slows the target such as Death Claws or Dual Cryo Pistols, so you can get a guaranteed hit with the Gadget Block.

Trivia 

  • This is one of two weapons with the ability to block gadgets, the other being the Void Ray Rifle.
  • This weapon might be a re-skin of the Magic Bow with a modified arrow and added glowing animations, but this is unlikely as it looks more like the Tactical Bow.
