Fun fact; videogames arent real life.

if you have enough strength to pull the bow back fully then the only thing you can do to deal more damage is to be more accurate and hit vitals, which takes dex, not str

>Bows can infinitely become stronger through str/dex upgrades
>Implying using a bow doesn't also take a lot of finesse to shoot well
Bows should really be hybrid dex/strength weapons
>>323269904
which means bows should be mainly dex weapons with some smaller extra scalling from str isnt that right?

Actually, I think being more accurate with a bow would probably be more closely tied to an Intelligence or Perception stat. Being able to quickly estimate how much you need to compensate for windage and the speed at which your target is moving.

It doesn't matter how well you can calculate if you can't implement those calculations. Dexterity scaling with bows measures how fine-tuned the user is with making the small adjustments that heavily influence the arrow's final behaviour.
videogames are different from real life

I think bows should require the luck stat, because if you shoot in the general direction of the enemy you're more likely to hit them if you're lucky.
>guns have a fixed damage range
>increasing your Dx raises the lower end of the range
>>323269904
You could make this argument for any weapon
