The Bow is one of New World’s most powerful range weapons if you have a decent build that can build up its range damage capabilities. You will also need to have high dexterity to increase the base damage of the weapon.

Light to medium armor would also be ideal for a decent Bow Build in New World with the right attributes. That said, here’s what we consider the best bow build in New World.

The Sniper

We are calling it the sniper for this build as it uses primarily from the hunter tree in the bow weapon mastery for extreme long-range critical damage. Here are the skills you will need to pick listed below.

These two skills will be your main weapon attacks as they are quite deadly when used in conjunction with each other. However, you will also need to grab the following passive skills or some of them to boost their effects.

Once you have both skills and the abilities listed above, you will need to acquire the Rain of Arrows skill in the skirmisher skill tree.

This ability allows you to fire a volley of seven meters wide that deals 150 percent weapon damage. Combine this third ability with all or some of the following passives for the best results.

Overall, we encourage players to use this build as a template for designing their characters and picking and choosing whatever skills they like.

But for the most part, if players are looking for a decent build, we highly recommend going with this setup. With our sniper build, players will maximize long-range damage and cause debuffs to enemies to slow them down and cause even more damage.
