Why are Sidearms and Bows left out?
Is it just me who thinks that these weapon archetypes are simply outperformed by everything else?
Sidearms have short range but decent fire rate, you’d think that would make them lethal at close range,something like SMGs, yeah? Nope, it’s no better than hand cannons’ that have better range and stats.
On the other hand we have Bows. Charge time comparable to linear fusion rifles but considerably lower damage. Making optimal and average TTK values way above 1 second. Something that’s very rare in current Crucible meta.
Are these weapon archetypes gonna see some improvements or are they gonna continue being left out? Imo, would be nice if we got some (or all) bows using special ammo and sidearms being more lethal at close ranges.

2 RepliesI am a bow main. Check my stats since forsaken, and see I've used a bow for the overwhelming majority of my kills since it launched. More than half are precision kills. I don't want a bow buff. Please, no bow buff, because I don't want the cancer meta players to start running bows and then I look like a dick for having so many freaking bow kills. No. All I want regarding bows is an increase in perks to be rolled as well as a higher amount of bows for ALL THREE slots. Precision frames to be exact.
