Well I have no trouble pulling off the bow hit unless I get energy raped.

Use sake to prevent stuns so you can get off the attack.

Why are you complaining?

You yourself have stated that it is fine

I agree with Brielga, the only thing that needs to be changed/boosted is its cooldown. Reduce it to 2. That's it. I mean it's 55 piercing AND goes thru counters....it's good enough.

I agree. The item needs some boosts in terms of its starting and all-around cooldown. It has barely been used by any Aoiros I know, and that's saying something about all Village Items I know of.

I like it the way it is now. Reducing is initial cd to 2 would only end in nerfing his damage or energy cost, that would kill the item.

You use it a lot now, sure. But we're talking ladder metas here. And as far as I have encountered them, Aoiros barely use their VI to a lesser extent than that of the Crystal Ball which is a situational item.

Yes, at least Crystal Ball is useful as a swap in item to face counters. But the bow is useless as a swap in item.

The problem is with the aioros not the item.
Tadashi already has a spike and akira needs BoM
Asami is the only one on which I even consider it.

And even then I'd rather have Asami use a Fire Arrow, Smoke Bomb, or something more helpful.

The problem with the bow is it's an actual skill like Flower of Kusa, but with less presence compared to the flower.

So it might be of best intentions to decrease some of the starting cooldown and its overall cooldown altogether.

Might be a good idea if it bypasses counter AND is piercing. If it already is, my apologies. The item is so unused that I have no idea of its actual capabilities.

As it is, all I use the bow for is to draw attention away from the center of my team and to asami, who no one wants to reach turn 4.
The bow needs a small boost of some sort (1 less initial cd and piercing?)

It currently already does piercing damage.
Maybe decreasing the initial cd will make it a bit more viable.
