The Bow in *Monster Hunter Wilds* stands out as the most aggressive of the ranged weapons, perfectly blending high mobility with the ability to charge attacks for increased damage output. Its design cleverly marries the Light Bowgun's ranged agility with a multi-hitting moveset reminiscent of the Dual Blades, offering players a dynamic and versatile combat experience.
A highlight of the Bow's arsenal is the new Tracer move, which enhances its tactical edge. When activated, Tracer allows arrows to lock onto a tagged monster. After accumulating sufficient damage or reaching a set time limit, the Tracer Arrow detonates, unleashing a powerful explosion for additional damage. Moreover, the Bow has evolved from the Adept style seen in *Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate*, now featuring the Perfect Dodging mechanic, which can be a game-changer in intense battles.
