Hunter Bow (class)

The Hunter Bow is a ranged weapon type in Horizon Forbidden West.

Description[]

The Hunter Bow is a solid choice for most combat scenarios, offering a balance between damage, accuracy, and reload speed.

While not the best at inflicting elemental states, Hunter Arrows can be found in all elemental types except for Plasma. They are also the only weapon type that can inflict the Berserk state.

By default, all Hunter Bows have a base 10% chance of landing a critical hit that deals 50% more damage. They also suffer a 50% damage penalty when not fully drawn, along with a 15% Overdraw damage bonus (if the bow is capable of overdrawing).

Weapon Techniques[]

High Volley: Fires a high arcing volley of four arrows.
Triple Notch: Notch up to three arrows, allowing for a more powerful but less accurate shot.
Knockdown Shot: A special arrow that does no damage but staggers or knockdowns machines.

Ammo[]

Hunter Arrow: Basic arrows that are cheap to craft and deals a mix of Impact and Tear damage.
Advanced Hunter Arrow: An improved version of the Hunter Arrow more effective against stronger enemies.
Elemental Hunter Arrow: Elemental arrows that can inflict Acid, Fire, Frost, Shock, or Purgewater, leading to status effects from triggering the elemental limit. They can detonate elemental canisters of the corresponding element, triggering a large explosion.
Advanced Elemental Hunter Arrow: An improved version of the Elemental Hunter Arrow that allows to reach elemental states faster, along with triggering a larger explosion when detonating elemental canisters.
Targeting Hunter Arrow: Arrows that direct an overridden machine's attacks.
Berserk Hunter Arrow: Arrows capable of triggering the Berserk state on enemies, causing them to attack the nearest target.
