  • Why I Chose This: The way this bow is able to deal massive amounts of damage from long-range. The further you are the more the damage.

Norden’s Ark, a Mythical Hunter Bow, offers unparalleled raw power among its peers in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. I found out that its substantial Damage and Stun attributes make it ideal for the game’s toughest missions. Notably, it excels in ranged combat, with its damage increasing with distance from the target. From my experience despite its weight, it maintains respectable mobility.

Due to its exceptional abilities, this Bow is a rare type, and you need to put in some effort to get your hands on it. This fourth-tier Hunter Bow comes with seven upgrade bars. The upgrading feature helps increase the weapon’s stats to make it more effective against enemies.

  • Why I Chose This: Great attack points and crit damage. The ability for it to take out common enemies in one headshot hit.

Ona:Kara is a Wolf-aligned bow with massive attack points and impressive Crit damage. This Bow in my opinion is suitable for players who like to play the game offensively. This Superior Bow is very handy when fighting off your foes from a distance due to its increased range. One headshot from this weapon can take out a common enemy.

  • Why I Chose This: The increased movement this hunter bow provides and the great ranged damage-dealing capabilities.

It is a two-handed Hunter Bow that can be used in ranged fights as it has pretty decent ranged damage. Although it has an average base attack, I found that it is pretty impressive in other aspects.

  • Why I Chose This: The warrior abilities and the superiority it provides in long-ranged stealth takedowns.

Dreka Bow in my opinion is also an excellent choice for offensive players as this Bow comes with various warrior abilities. This weapon is suitable when you want to go into stealth mode without being noticed and want to take down enemies without getting too close to them. I’ve experienced that it is a bit heavy to wield and will decrease your movement speed to some extent.

After being fully upgraded, it becomes a beast on the battlefield. Using this weapon from a range is more beneficial as its damage increases with the distance from the target. If you are wearing heavy armor, then the capabilities of this deadly Bow are further increased.

How to get Dreka Bow

  • This deadly Bow is available in the game store for 350 Helix Points from where you can purchase it.
  •  A bit over-priced, however, its impressive stats and confident performance on the battlefield justify its price.
