Bows seems underpowered... :(

Yes But the Bow is Realy hard to get on target and even then it only takes away 1 heart

If you understand that, if you fire ahead of a person moving perpendicular to you, they will run into the arrow, it doesn't mess with anything at all. The only problems with bows atm, is that there aren't enough arrows to.

We are already planning to increase bows power. Not to much but enough to make you run away if you are getting pelted with arrows.

Enchantment tables would help if they add them

Agreed.

Yeah Bows are very under-powered in Minecraft, I wonder if we will ever see a buff to their damage in vanilla Minecraft.

I wish!

It used to be overpowered. Way too overpowered. Before it took an adventure update to the knee.

Yay! So gald that the community and the Survival Games team agree with me, i can not wait for the update on bows...

And Evolta, yeah i remember way back before 1.7 you could spam arrows and take down pretty much anyone from a distance... The new mechanic is good, but in the context of SG its lacking somewhat of a punch.

Thanks so much guys!!!

i think an increase in damage VIA range should be a helpful too, so the farther away you are, the more damage you do!
