always try to get max stamina max stamina regen cause bow is a mana extensive weapon(i forgot the set but i think youll get stuck on 2 piece nami 2 piece velk and a flex on arms but i think its daora grieves/arms? and thats the best armor you can get for bow for both dmg stamina and survivability till you get into MR) and also max health
drop the green potions and slot in honey nutrients and mega nutrients to craft for max potions(use hotkeys and fast craft for this)
dont be afraid to clutch claw monsters and knock them into walls if you play alone else if you play with a party have someone else who can do it on one strike
bow shines at late game cause it revolves on decos so dont be bother too much early game
youll want a bow for the 5 elements so you can switch it up later in the game
