It comes amid a chorus of pleas from players to nerf the weapon in Season 9. The Bocek Bow has been a welcome addition to the Apex Legends loot pool. The marksman weapon has added some interesting flair to the battle royale, with its relatively quiet shots packing a punch. However, it\u2019s hitting a bit too hard for some players\u2019 liking. Casuals and pros alike have unleashed a chorus of pleas to nerf the overpowered weapon, and ImperialHal is leading the charge. \u201cYes, the bow is going to be in competitive, and they\u2019re not going to nerf that sh*t until next year. Can\u2019t wait to play competitive and just die getting sniped from across the map,\u201d he said on stream. He took a jab at the developers\u2019 skill, claiming the only reason the Bocek made it through playtesting in its current state was because they were \u201cmissing all their shots.\u201d \u201cThey thought it was a great idea to have a gun that is on the ground that can do 100+ to the head, it\u2019s hitscan, [and] can do 70 to the body. I really don\u2019t understand how they thought that was fine,\u201d he said. \u201cAre they missing all their shots so they don\u2019t know how much damage that shit hits [for]?
