bow is insane what the hell? Ranged weapons are inherently better since you can dps for larger time windows, and hera is one of the best aspect in the game, it and beowulf are the two best speedrunning weapons. Crush shot hera is just stupidly good. Chiron and rama are pretty neat too, and bow has probably the best zag aspect.
Btw, there's a bug (I assume) causing your dash-strike with bow to have pitiful damage (8 if perfected). To fix this, open mod's folder. There you will see 3 files. Right click on BetterBow.lua and select edit (I used notpad++ but I assume normal notpad will also work) then change the PerfectChargeDamageMultiplier (the one under BowWeaponDash not the one under BowWeapon) to 1 from 0.2. This will revert the damage of dash-strike back to vanilla values.
so im with you about the bow being awful, but tweaking the perfect shot damage isnt doing anything for me. the bow should attack as soon the button is pressed, like every other weapon does. ive found that PlayerWeapons.sjson Line 546 has MinChargeToFire = 0.2 ChargeTime = 0.6 and changing it to MinChargeToFire = 0.002 ChargeTime = 0.006 totally did the trick. i cannot be arsed to learn how to turn this into a proper mod, but youre welcome to include this tweak if you want. i dont need credit
Would I be able to use this mod to modify the stats of the bow? Specifically, I want to make it worse lmao. I want to use it to practice a character in a specific game's playtest, so I want to have the perfect shot have a charge time of 1.25 seconds and the usual window of .15 seconds, and I would like to also reduce the hitbox on the arrow.
