Description

The Compound Bow is the strongest Bow in 7 Days to Die.

It is a medium-range weapon that fires arrows as Ammunition. To equip a different type of arrow, press and hold R, then select the ammo type you want.

Combat

During combat, a Compound Bow is a powerful medium to long range weapon. At short range, however, the player may have trouble because it requires reloading for each shot.

Due to its slow firing rate, a Bows should be used with care at short range against more than one enemy or wild animal.

Bows are great for stealth attacks, as firing an arrow doesn't make a sound and won't alert nearby zombies. Hitting a zombie, without killing it, does alert the zombie.

Sneak attacks deal 100% extra damage.
