The bow is a rifle which makes no sound
Basically the Bow makes no noise, so the hit is much harder to spot where it is being shot from. EDIT: It also has no reload. EDIT 2: also, it seems to be hit-scan when fully charged so no arrow dr...

@Peri_Longbow_plz
it obviously does make a difference.
All guns make noise when shot. it allows you to tell where you are being shot from. Now.
Imagine a player having a gun that makes no sound, and you are the one being third partied.... you cannot even tell where they are shooting you from. So you cannot run for cover, cannot shoot back.... etc
And because it makes no noise, your team mates will not be able to identify the enemy, unless they happen to see the player shooting. Noise will not be of any help, because THERE IS NONE!
@Vdstrk The little to no sound is what it should be, but it definitely needs more arrow drop and less speed. You know like an actual Bow not a gun.
- @BigBlackCaustic Exactly. How the heck anyone can argue an arrow should fly like a bullet or even better is beyond me.

You know like an actual Bow not a gun.Yeah for a Bow to be silent is a normal thing, but this ain`t a good thing in Apex, where sound/audio is/was broken for so so so long. And silence weapons are just not good for this game at all.
It doesn`t fit the game at all. Its just going to give a lot of players more frustration.
Yeah some people will have ton of fun that are abusing it, but other that don`t want to exclusively play the bow, or play like that, aka hide and wait for a fight to begin and all we do is third party will be nightmare.
Again they are doing it for $$$$. A lot of casuals are going to use it, a lot of content creator to get this highlighted clips on youtube. That mean a lot of skin sold.
- @BigBlackCaustic Everytime I have headphones on I can hear the arrows. Even when I don't I can really. But with 🎧 I can hear them better. I haven't killed anyone from any considerable distance with on so I can't speak for the drop.
