Some of the weapon and item descriptions are amazing.

only 6 hrs played but I havent seen a bow outside of the beginning area. Now that I have the 3rd weapon slot I would love to have it for being sneaky beaky close range and hunting.

Also one of the challenges is killing people form 150+ M away. I have yet to find a place not surrounded by trees with clear visual to do so.

At one point one of the compounds was 155M away and i sniped a guy on the roof but didn't get credit.

If you had the bow once you should be able to add it to your weapon wheel again anytime that you go to a gun shop.

I’ve never played a far cry before so I assumed I’d have to go find another bow, but it seems like once you own a weapon once you have it forever

yea that's the thing I didn't pick it up at the beginning.

I guess I can just fast travel back.

Finally found a fishing rod last session so when I get the chance to play again I'm gonna try that out as well.

I'm off until next Thursday

I am about 7 hours into the game and have really been enjoying it. It is definitely repetitive but I can't help keep playing to liberate the next outpost. I started in John Seed's area and have just moseyed along to the sister's area.

WHY don’t you just a bow from a store?

I see bows everywhere. Especially in the Mountains of Jacob Seed Region.

I've been playing more with Peaches and Boomer. They are good for stealth and it's pretty cool watching them take different guys out at the same time.
I originally played with a Sniper girl I recruited. Although she drives me nuts at the amount of times she says "Peggies".
I teamed her up with Grace Armstrong. They probably have over 200 kills apiece.
Only bad thing about them is they aren't stealthy.

A sniper rifle with the best scope and a silencer is so clutch. Decent rate of fire, too, so you can pick off a bunch of guys in an outpost before they can really react and trigger an alarm. I go back and forth between that and a bow for stealth.

Also, watching wildlife just mess up some cult members randomly is fun. Saw one while going for a prepper stash where a bull gored two guys who were trying to execute some random town folk in the middle of a field.

Can't wait to knock off and play FC5 all weekend.

I just don't have enough drugs. Working on it.

Why don't you use the sniper rifle or bow to take out the alarms first?

That is always my first move, then scout for a caged animal to set free.

All i've really dealt with him so far has been the opening, but he was fricking crazy then. Haven't spent much time on the story so far, too much fun fishing and exploring the scenery
