0 D3x Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 What do you intend on using the bow for? Also, what is your prime hunting style? Everyone is a bit different. I got a bow soon as I could as I like it for hunting but the varmint rifle may be of more use across the board for a lot of players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Bucnation3139 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Varmint rifle for sure ! Birds are one of the best money makers. You need varmint for sure ! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Major Dammidge Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 No contest: Varmint ✓ You can't believe the number of kills I get just ridng from point a to point b: rabbits squirrels birds etc. And because it is 22 caliber I get a lot of perfect carcasses, feathers and pelts. But I have my shotgun handy in case of ambush or wolves. I think it is the first weapon of choice for griefers because of its head shot ability and the speed it chambers rounds. Consider today: my posse-mate and I were NPC-ambushed on a winding road and I didn't even realize I hadn't changed weapons. When it was over my posse mate teased me about being a terrible shot because of the number of rounds I had fired. But I'm going to venture a guess that I took out more of the bad guys than he did because even I was amazed at thep performance of that sweet little .22 and it's cheap rounds 👍 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 mizTik Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 As everyone else says, Varmint takes the cake. Bows are fun but they don't have as much use. Plus the rifle is great for both hunting and PvP. The bow can be a bit tricky. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kean_1 Posted January 18, 2019 Share Posted January 18, 2019 I'll wager the bow is going to be more popular when they change blips to proximity based. The report from weapons will become a means of detection of players in the area. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against the Varmint or any rifle with range, it is basically a no contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Born Homicidal Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Bow is so satisfying when you get a silent kill with it. Varmint Rifle in PvP is sad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Major Dammidge Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 According to @BurbonChaser the February 26th changes will have great impact on the varmint rifle. I might be one mad meaux feaux. 🤬 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the varmint rifle stays good and accurate for hunting....but I won't be one bit sad if it sucks in PvP. IMO, It is too OP and should not be able to compete with other rifles. I've used it to defend myself in free roam and was astonished at how I could easily take down someone from so far away. It made me feel like I was a superstar....but I really wasn't.

I hope that includes the acquisition time as that is one of the main reasons folks use it beyond its intended purpose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
