Been a bow main since Origins and it has been overwhelmingly more satisfying than melee for me, so I am happy to see this is still the case in Valhalla. Thanks ESO!
Following your vid I just fully upgraded and enhanced the Hunnish bow with a thought of changing to it since you said it has the highest attack but in comparison the Sagittarius Bow...also a Hunter bow (which I have equipped) has a higher Attack and Stun. Check the stats comparison: Hunnish Bow: Atk 138, Stun 149, Hd-Shot 97, Spd 42, Crit-Pre 110, Wgt 11 Sagittarius Bow: Atk 139, Stun 150, Hd-Shot 97, Spd 41, Crit-Pre 110, Wgt 11
Thank you for the guide. For whatever reason I found myself favoring the use of the bow and arrow in this game. I'm looking forward to using the gear and runes!
It's strong, but redundant. Unless they've patched it in the last few days bonus damage buffs max out at +30. Only the minor runes increase it further.
love these build vids. I wish AC Valhalla had more gear though, especially early-mid game. I've been playing for like 10 hours and I still don't have any cool gear.
Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like a waste of time and effort to aim for weak spots if the objective to to always aim for the head to quickly and efficiently get the maximum amount of damage per second. You are diminishing marginal returns by investing in increased damage to weak point buffs. What I did instead was replace the Hunnish bow with death seeker bow to get the additional headshot damage and speed, socketed with the light deft rune (increased crit chance) paired with the mentors set buff (increased attack after crit hits) with negative weight runes socketed in armor. Instead of aiming for weak points, you are passively getting crit damage more often, hence more overall attack damage (after buffs) when aiming for the head.
I really don't think very hard diffculty is a challenge. The game teaches you how to block if it provided higher sensitivity for bow aiming that would be awesome
Damb dude. I am so appreciative of this channel. ESO made like a spreadsheet and really did the math on every bow. So much effort goes into these videos. Thank you 🙏
Yes! Thank you for this I'm loving Valhalla and I'm a axe duel weilder and bow user lvl 99 right now have a few huntsman pieces and hidden ones gauntlets.
I did the same thing but you should check out the berserker set. The perks on it I think make it a really good well-rounded set. I bought a piece with opals but I don't think you can get it for free from what I've read and I won't spend more money for dumb stuff
Way of the wolf and the others dont give you a boost to the character...it boosts the gear you put on...and only the set that is related to the boost you level.
odd question, do runes only affect the weapon they are on.. So if you use a range rune on your ax lets say will it affect your bow? or does it have to be on the bow?
@@jasonmurphy4957 so all arrow damage circular runes on with this? I wanna know so I can try to find these later in the game. Zealots and the last chapter hard af so I wanna one shot kill them.
CRIT DAM BUFFS + SPEED TRUMPS RANGED BUFFS: -------------- Once you're in endgame, you can pretty much ditch all perks and runes relating to headshots and weak points, and instead retool for CRIT DAMAGE, which is general damage with NO requirement to hit the head or weakspots. Why ? Because overkill is WASTED DAMAGE that can be put to better use such as healing. For example, i'd replace the redundant diamond rune (weakpoint hit buffs ranged damage) with healing (crit hit generates low level healing). The other two rune slots can then be switched to Crit Dam +8's, and ditto crit dam for both melee weapons. The crit damage buff is doubly OP because it buffs BOTH ranged and melee. Pair it with a speed buffing set, and you're truly OP.
BTW, I'd argue that the Saggitarius Bow is a mrginally better hunter bow than the Hunnish bow, because the latter only buffs ranged dam in exchange for WP hits, whereas the former buffs SPEED, which helps ALL attacks, not just ranged. Stacks nicely with other speed perks and runes too. It's better.
there's a question for the 6 hidden codex pages, you find them together with the armor in the hidden ones bureaus, there's videos on CZcams revealing the locations
You also need to be at max level like him to get all those range skill bonus and stealth damage bonus. At the moment I still need 260+ leveling up to get to max level.
Way of the wolf gear etc only gives boost to the aligned gear.. so if you are wearing all bear, you wont get benefits from this wolf skill... and visa versa :)
I tried using the Dublin Set with a Huntsman Rune... I dont I see the Huntsman popping up above my HP bar. Either way, is the Dublin Set better than Huntsman?
I’m curious as to whether the Raven’s Loot skill picks up the arrows that you shoot when you kill someone or not which would make this build a little better basically having infinite arrows
Yes. The Raven Loot skill loots enemies. The arrows you shoot are picked up as loot, when you loot an enemy normally. So, it logically follows, that your Raven loots arrows. If you don't believe me, you can also just try it out. It's just one skill point.
Besides getting the dual wielding skills to use two weapons at once. Should i just max out blue and yellow? Leave red for only 25 fir dual wielding? I want to be a pure assasisin/hunter build. Sneak and shoot like i did on oddysese
You don’t need a skill for dual wielding unless you want to dual wield two heavy weapons. I’ve been running dual daggers with mentor and huntsman hybrid. I sneak around and shoot. Then if I get discovered I light my weapons on fire and go to town
@@PandaKing550 ok thanks. Then i will changed that. I though i did need it for 2 daggers. So far ive been impresss. Ive manage to kill 3 zeolots high levels. Barely any attack unless i need to refill adrealine. Makes me feel like i wanna reset and start all over again lol
I was thinking of picking this game up, but i want to make sure of something first. Does the game have the miserable leveling system of odyssey? It just made the game so lackluster, never felt like i got that much stronger. Just able to fight against the same reskinned enemies except they were near my level now.
im level 160 and im doing missions in lvl 250 im scared to finish the rest of the stuff at my level itll be so easy. you can definitely be way lower and take out people i do it all the time its more fun
I don't like that you're supposed to just randomly stumble upon five pieces of each armor set,either give the locations after you find one piece or put the entire set in one box. But that got me to pay extra for the Berserker set and i guess that was the plan all along.
Without hitting a weak point first with the hidden ones version I hit 3337 for a charged headshot. The video title saying 2k+ under sells how strong the it is 😅
Am I the only one that has problem on finding the runes just purchased ? I mean i see them in the inventory, but when i open the item to instal the rune i cannot find them... any help?
He said that although this one is more consistent as you don't have to always be over 20 meters away. What is the damage on that though? I've got better runes than ESO so without even hitting a weak spot first I get 3,337 damage for a headshot.
This Is a bit misleading.....I am level 320, fully upgraded mythical dublin champion armour, mythical bows, Major runes etc and my highest bow shot on a person was like 600, On a fish I somehow hit 2169 🤷♂️ So the only reason this Is good Is because of the double arrow? Why Is mine always so low as I always play Range/Stealth and with what I have I hit such low numbers 😳
Been a bow main since Origins and it has been overwhelmingly more satisfying than melee for me, so I am happy to see this is still the case in Valhalla. Thanks ESO!
This game needs gyro on PS5. I’ve played 100+ hours with gyro on Forbidden West. You can’t go back after you know how much better it is.

@@user-ei7lf2on5t gyroscopic technology, it's when you rotate the controller itself and the screen rotates with it.
I agree on the Hunnish bow. I'm actually amazed that an early level weapon is actually SO good. It's my go-to bow.
It’s funny how I’ve used that bow ever since the beginning. And now, it shall be my new Excalibur.
You know what is funny i get that build by accident and didn't even realized that it have so much damage 😅
@@We_got_wrong same I just had not the runes on it and I thought maybe I can get a better build 😂
Same =) And also ranged build, only thing I need to change is armor =)
I find it funny how I just naturally gravitated towards the Hunnish Bow too

love these build vids. I wish AC Valhalla had more gear though, especially early-mid game. I've been playing for like 10 hours and I still don't have any cool gear.
10 hours is no where near mid-early game.
Ya it took me 50-55 to beat the game and that's not even 100%
Thanks for a great video, I've been following you since you made Skyrim videos and were always happy.
always fun to maximize a build.

The heavy hunter attack is insane with or without a build
You really are the best
You didn't include the Magyar bow in your comparisons. I think it's the strongest. Have you turn in all animal parts to the hunter building in camp.
Awesome as always
Wow good build!
This is great! Thank you!!

What about nodens' Are? Isn't that the best hunter bow?
I thought you couldn’t stack the same talent like that??? Did you test that? Does that actually work?
You can look at the stats before and after you put ruins in and watch it change.
Awesome build! I'll have to check it out. Heads up though! Thegn is pronounced as "Thay-n" Thanks man!
Light bow has a skill that shoots all your arrows. Also very very powerful
Yeah, it's like 5 arrows when fully charged
I prefer the Hunter bow you get from the guy in Cent I believe or maybe it was Essexe..
Why?
Thanks so much man
having a diamond,major call it as you like rune increasing damage the further the enemy is from you,i will give it a try as well :)

Can this be played from level 1 start? Or after your already high level respec?
Can you do a video on finding the hidden ones armor set? Or do you get that playing the main story line
find old assassin bureaus
there's a question for the 6 hidden codex pages, you find them together with the armor in the hidden ones bureaus, there's videos on CZcams revealing the locations
what do you think of Black Raven set?
Early on. I just got to Soma in England. What are the other skills besides charged arrow?
Eso yet again manages to find another game breaking weapon. Should be called bane of drengr's.
I hope you reply to this would the fallen hero gear be better then hidden ones’??
You also need to be at max level like him to get all those range skill bonus and stealth damage bonus. At the moment I still need 260+ leveling up to get to max level.
I’m maxed power lvl and maxed mastery lvl I don’t think that will be a problem

If Thegns armor was ravens that would be op with a duel spear build.
Its still quite good, am running Thegns with dual spear, the range and fast attacks really chew through the enemies.
Does the weak point runes actually stack? Are you sure?
If ur using the hidden armor set what way of do you use raven bear or what ??

Never mind! This is the bow you already have at the start of the game.
Isn't the nodens arc the same but u dont need weak points?
Why are you manually picking up your arrows off bodies when theres a raven skill that has your raven loot bodies killed by range weapons?
What happened to my Hunter's bow I had 28 arrows now I only have 12 Max did something happened in the game did they take this away from us?
Is there gyro aiming?
