Pretty sure I read that you can block with a bow equipped... Every time I click the block button my guy does some sort of a power bash attempt that wastes his stamina.
If I hold down the block button with an arrow drawn I zoom in and slow time because of the perks.

I don't have any perks in blocking.

So are you supposed to be able to block with a bow? Anyone else having a problem with this on the PC?

From my experiences with Archery, no you can't block, you either need to switch to a shield or just punch their face in. Doesn't seem to say anything about it in the blocking perk tree either. Blocking with a bow does sound a bit silly though. xD

I don't think you're supposed to block with a bow - you can, however, use the bash attack to stagger enemies and use that to gain some distance or fire a shot before they get after you again.

No blocking with a bow. Curious where you read that you could.
