How Strong is Bow in Global? | Octopath CotC

[@PrimismyEX]

Two interesting things I noticed while doing this clear: 1. Cosmic Dagger is bugged very much in the same way that Kurtz A4 was bugged, in that it only takes effect when the holder is in the front row at the time of application. (T1 for Nicola A4 for example, and needs to be in front to proc 2t on Tatloch A4) P.S.: Kurtz A4 is still bugged for applying Sertet ult for some reason. (someone else found it, as I don't have Sertet) 2. Streibough A4 is currently bugged to provoke row partner as well (turn upon switchin, but before switch, as for some reason Auguste is only targeting Z’aanta on T2.} Lowest row order also preserves the provoke status to T6 (Bargello in this case) The great thing is that it extends the total timer of provoke, so it's now possible to get 6T of provoke onto your Serenoa A4 user. Overall It’s a bit funky and all these provoke mechanics warrant further testing. Damage could’ve been more if I opted to wait for Tatloch A4 proc and use an extender along with Z’aanta A4 on Solon for the full 30% on break. I hope Saber doesn't mind that I copped his Z’aanta Emote. Thanks in advance! Now onto the main topic of this video: "How good is bow right now?" Tldr; Not enough role compression. Odio O can help with the missing active damage up while providing extensible guaranteed crit as well, allowing Z’aanta to pre-stack full pet buffs. In the short run we can at least look forward to this upgrade while we wait for the true bow meta units to come ;) Cheers!

Does Saber know?

Not the zaanta gamble thumbnail 😭

Ngl this was pretty satisfying to see. I get now why Solon is a top tier unit. Looking forward to getting it in the future :x

Hilarious how Z'aanta is still top bow DPS in EN- amazing staying power in bow top DPS amongst all the earlier gacha units!

Me who still uses Lumis EX despite it being very niche

[@khairul_gacha]

For now, Bow isn't meta.

[@EmpyreanSky]

Bow may not be the very best team, but you are making a strong case for the idea of "team-synergy > meta chars" with this clear. I wonder, could you do faster than 5 turns with a sword team?

[@PrimismyEX]

It's 4T with a lot of overkill using sword currently. 3T might even be possible with the likes of Odio O
