The Recurve Bow is one of the three main ranged weapons - the other two being the Longbow and Crossbow.
Overview[ | ]
While aiming the Recurve Bow, the player's view will zoom in slightly, and their crosshair will change to help guide the shot a little better. Right clicking while aiming will return the Recurve Bow to its idle state without firing. To reload the Recurve Bow's ammunition, interact with a Resupply Box.
Alt Mode: None
Gear cost: 18 points
Strengths[ | ]
- Generally the fastest of the three main ranged weapons overall
- Has the highest ammo count of any ranged weapon
- Has the lowest gear point cost of the other main ranged weapons, making it a decent choice as a sidearm
- While the user has the Huntsman perk and meets its conditions, the damage to heads and torsos increases by 2.3x
- If an Arrow Pit is built by a player with a Toolbox, the bow's arrows may be lit on fire for extra damage
Weaknesses[ | ]
- Generally has the lowest per-shot damage of the three main ranged weapons
- Keeping the bow drawn for too long will cause your aim to shake and drift to the side before eventually cancelling
- If the user is struck by a melee weapon while holding the bow, it will be immediately dropped.
- Dropping a bow or switching to another weapon and back will require it to be reloaded again

Historical References[ | ]
The recurve bow was historically made of layers of wood or sinew glued together. This made a potent weapon of small size, ideal for horse archers. As so, it was commonly used by Mongol forces in the push by the golden horde into europe.
Notes and Trivia[ | ]
- If a recurve bow is dropped and picked back up again by its owner, it will retain the amount of ammo it had left. If another player picks it up, it will only come with a maximum of 7 shots.
