I hate when someone uses bow only, but I spam my bow too...Sachrock hate me doing it anyway. I prefer the sword even though I usually get slaughtered
I see many of you are talking about spamming your bow and as much as that works it's kinda a scrubby move.
I do usally use my bow to snipe (Hoe to spell that?) that's OR with my Skaoi's bow, Witch is nothing more as a renamed god bow, OR with my sharpshooter (Depends on is someone is in water or not) abd when someone is to close, I'll use my sword (OR a Ham Hacker OR one of my "sharpness V Fire aspect II" swords, witch are all funny renamed (Daddy's brain, Fantasy, Blue hug) to finish it, most likeley with me dying
Since you all shared your methods I will share mine. I'm quite masterful with a bow (my bow being named thas'dorah) But I also excel in using Redstone traps.
What I do commonly with pvp is that I cower away from large group fights and I usually become the janitor. Swords are my main source of damage, bows are very finicky and I just don't like them. If I am facing a group in open pvp it's crucial to get sprint hits, you need that extra knockback. If I get cornered, spazzing the left mouse is my means of killing others.
