well it should have terrible hipfire it's a sniper rifle, that's why you get a secondary weapon.
But totally agree about the bullet drop off. I think that is the only thing you need to do to this gun is decrease drop off
mag size is fine imo. You should be punished with reloads for missing shots
Warning... Unpopular opinion upcoming.
This gun suffers from the hop-up problem in this game. I hate the hop-ups. They make bad guns usable (longbow, prowler) or strong guns straight up OP (peacekeeper, wingman).
If they got rid of the hop-ups, just made longbow always have devastating headshots, at least it would have a place and identity. But no one uses longbow, because for it to be even a decent weapon, you have to find the stupid hop-up.
Perhaps the Long Bow is supposed to be a low tier sniper just like the Alternator is a low tier SMG?
Actually i later found out there is a major descrepence in bullet fall off range.
I would actually like to see the Longbow accept the Hammerpoint and Disruptor Rounds. This would give it a bit more utility and increase the chances of finding a usable hop-up. I'd personally go for the Disruptor rounds because I like to force people to eat through their shield repair in long-distance third-partying scenarios.
