Samurai Archers

[Delvish]

Good to see I am not alone in this regard.

Yoichi-bow has always been sort of a dream of mine that I would probably take up again once I get back into Dynamis.

I would however really like to emphasise the magian bows again. Gandiva would be awesome of course, as would its retarded cousin for Jishnu's Radiance but understandable if that is out of the question. I'm still quite happy with Refulgent Arrow. Personally regarding reasonable bows, the fire based Bateleur or any of the Sparrowhawks would be much more up a Sam's alley. You'd see non-/rangers getting these trials too, if it meant extra STp or 9 more STR.

The problem with Sparrowhawk trials is again, they would be incompletable due to a lack of necessary WS.

I'm guessing this is the main reason why ToM bows aren't available to non-RNGs. But it's not like it'd be anymore overpowered than any other dual wield options. Unless dual wield jobs were allowed to use bows too i guess... Idk, i really don't see the hurt in putting SAM on ToM bows too.

Try telling that to the devs after pups made a HUGE thread about ToM animators with some stats on it (since pup cant access ANY ranged or ammo gear without gimping their ability to control the automaton..) only for the devs to say an outright no due to "balance" issues...
