Dead Cells: WHY DO I SUCK SO MUCH WITH THE MAGIC BOW AND STARFURY

[@rawlf-74]

Thanks for uploading content! I'm visiting family during the holiday and haven't been able to play dead cells for weeks. Tbh I dislike magic bow. It's got a noticeably long activation time which makes it hard to use when you're caught off guard like when that knife thrower began throwing knives after you parried and dashed through the rampager in prison depths. Next time I would suggest deploying your turret or other skill onto the platform below if you're cursed and can't safely scout for enemies. You can stay just within range from above for it to activate on any enemies below. Promenade is hard bc of all the protector dummies shielding nearby enemies. The failed experiment and runner made it nearly impossible to eliminate the protector that was shielding them, and all the while the grenadier was throwing bombs from the platform above. If you can't eliminate a protector bc you're being flanked by nearby enemies, then I would recommend luring the other enemies away from protector range. Good luck with your next run!

Yeah. I'm really disliking the magic bow for it's long activation time as well. Also, good to know these lil things for the next run. I'll try to keep these things in mind for the next runs to come whenever I have to deal with those pesky obscurers.

I'd say that you built starfury wrong to be fair, I've found that the weapon is better when built as tactics, as tactics has things like Networking and Point Blank that make it incredibly strong. Although, the brutality version can work well with things like melee since it slows them and gives you more time to attack.

[@aaronmcfarlane2549]

Although, it makes sense that you went with the brutality version, since you got when you were already going brutality.

[@aaronmcfarlane2549]

I always felt that with magic bow you either feel underpowered constantly, slow, or that you're really overpowered. It's always only one at a time though.

@@aaronmcfarlane2549 yeah, starfury just feels like a weapon that does not work as well for how i usually like to play with my weapons. And I was honestly thinking about if the shooting stars it sends count as ranged attacks to proc the point blank mutation and stuff.
