why is there no archery love? : V - Skyrim

Bound Bow. Guarantee you no one else in Skyrim has anything like it :biggrin:

Plus it packs quite the punch with that Mystic Binding perk and has the ability to get a permanent soul trap enchantment on it through another conjuration perk

Its a really good early game spell yeah, provided you can find it early game. Not worth spending any perk points upgrading it though as you can make much better bows with enchant and smithing. Same goes for all bound weapons.

It would be cool to get something like the Hyperion Bow from that movie Immortals.

I've never had much trouble with destruction, really. So whats the deal? does it not do enough damage output for you?

The deal? The deal is you have to abuse Destruction for it to be considered viable alongside sneakery, arrow tossing and slashing.

Yeah, also in the beginning of the game there was not 'archery option' you needed to pick up the bow. There was alchmey, stealth, magic, one-handed, ETC.

My first playthru was a stealth-archer, man was it overpowered.

Yes I agree towards the end of my Archer it was boring because it got to the point even with the difficulty turned up it was really easy.

They nerfed the damage with the 1.6 patch, my bow that did 99 now does 68 so that should up the difficulty a little though it seems to prove that Bethesda hates Archers but Archers are OP if you know what you're doing

I don't mind the lack of artifacts, the daedric bow is good enough for me. I'm just glad I had an archery character before the release of this. I've got a character with mastery of range for the dawnguard, and an awesome vampire for the lords. I'm set up perfectly for this DLC.
