PSO2:NGS Braver Bow guide & tips

[@Zer0Perplexity]

Got to say a few things: 1) Mighty Guard doesn't apply to Bow's WA, it counts as an (hence why it's spammable like Jet Boots and Knuckles WA), not a guard, which is when you hold down the WA on Katana and Sword and get hit, flinching and taking slight damage. There's so many points right now though, that it doesn't really matter atm what you spend the extras on. 2) Fully Charged Flex Arrows are actually one of Bow's lowest DPS PAs, due to the fact of how long it charges. It is only effective if you can manage to pre-charge it, like right before a fight starts or when a boss is immune. 3) Charged Flex Arrows (piercing arrow) are your go to damage PAs, aside from against bosses/enemies smaller than Pettas Minions. It's one of the only PAs in the game that can do above 400 DPS right now. 4) Uncharged Dimensional Ray I agree is good on downed bosses, but only on bosses that're smaller than Pettas Minions(or bosses with extremely small weakpoints like Varas) since Charged Flex Arrow is so effective.

Hey thanks for sharing your spread sheet! Just wanna know what multi weapon you used on the bow? Thanks

[@Zer0Perplexity]

@@momochgaming I use Launcher multi-weapon since it requires little micromanagement to use and a decent burst of pp when I know I'm about to spam PAs for a while.

[@earn-chan]

I want to mention that doing a third charge actually do less dps and second charge actually do the most dps(if all the penetration hit)

I’m new to this game. So should braver be set as main or sub and what other class should I put with it? Also, do you do multiweapon with bow or leave it as just bow?

[@ZNRenova]

Hi, braver can be set as either main or sub. Preferably main, if you decide to multi weapon the bow I would recommend any other ranged weapons, like rifle, launchers for example, but I personally would leave it just bow

[@Jerbster91]

[@Knytely]

whats the outfit you have on against dustyl?

[@froztbytes]

I don't know what I'm doing so I'm just gonna lock myself inside a trania with Bujin while trying to follow this until I get good.

[@jakehunter1172]

Any chance we can get an updated video on bow? If you still play this, that is. New Sub, BTW.

[@ZNRenova]

soon hopefully!

[@sirken2]

as someone who has been away from ngs since about the time braver came out how does bow bravers dmg compare to say a a ranger?

[@ZNRenova]

Braver in general is good as a dps class. I can't really compare the bow to other ranged weapons since the damage output is basically the same as a ranged weapon. But if I were to compare specifically those 2, I'd say if geared up enough I want to say ranger can give a slightly better output? Only because they have access to blight rounds to inflict more damage. Where braver has braver combat. But if you combine those 2 together I'd say bow is better if bow is attacking the target marked with blight rounds. This is all my imo I am no stat God 🤣

[@dragspear]

Holy F your movement combo and chains are exactly the same as mine. WTF!? Hopefully we'll have more playstyles when new PAs drop. Edit : A great concise video for explaining bow skills and techniques.

[@ZNRenova]

They teased some PAs and the new one for bow looks fire!

What camo is that you are using?

What are good subs for a bow braver since force is not needed? Bouncer or fighter maybe?

[@ZNRenova]

both are good, and it really depends on the situation

[@Kiwigaya]

what was that skill at 1:38??

[@ZNRenova]

Brave Combat

[@KamenKami]

@@ZNRenova Is there a condition or input similar to the wired lance weapon action attack? Or it just happens during the skill activation?

[@OlsenOfficial]

So in this guide you don't mention a sub?

[@ZNRenova]

No. Because this is a guide focusing on the weapon
