If you've read Sammuthegreat's impressions thread you'll know what I'm talking about. He basically describes a type of shield bash action with a bow where you thrust the bow at the enemy, stunning them like a shield bash.

How do you think this new mechanic will influence gameplay?

So when they get close (as i can no longer backpedal and spew arrows out like a skooma infused Crossbow) i bash them to stun, then quicky switch to a dagger/sword or finish them off with a final shot.

Seems like some epic fighting will be allowed because of this.

They charge forward, you knock 'em back, and send a single arrow through their peeper.

not alot, though in not a bow exclusive person
