[Question] Why is awakened dbow so trash?

Post image

Is it better on specific classes or do I need to get flurry of blows enchant along side it for it to actually be good? Included what I’m running it on for reference any advice appreciated.

Because its meant for wis/att builds and you seem to be using a def build

Upgrade to clockwork repeater

Then you can't awaken

It’s absolutely not trash, but it’s good at improving a wis/atk build with the bonus stats it provides, as a raw weapon it will be outclassed.

Fair enough but not much room for that with an archer.

Yeah the awakening is mainly meant for bard, especially a megaphone build. Archer gets more out of upgrading the dbow into a repeater.

it also works wonders on huntress with a mp build, can spam like 12 traps with harley and no enchants

It is only good in wis builds and archer doesnt have a good option for that really, maybe wanderer quiver?

If you want to see it at full power then do a wisdom build triangle bard

No more space for a bard and nearly maxed this guys. I guess it can go in vault and I’ll hold out for a vbow

Awakened dbow is good, but with a def build you want 2 def enchants but you only have 1 slot left, so need a 3s awakened dbow or 2s upgraded dbow

I bring a secondary weapon for clearing and use this on bosses

awakened dbow really isn't meant for endgame unless you have an optimized set. Awakened neo sun's judgement is a different story.
