Hunter Bow - elemental arrows slower to load

Bug or design feature?

Sun Scourge and TEars of the land god used for testing.

I was checking coil combinations and realised that on my Hunter bows the impact and adv impact arrows (TOLG) load dramatically faster than elemental arrows. I'd say 50-65% faster from my testing on SS bow.

I'm using the time from one overdrawn shot to the next achieving overdraw status.

Previously I had been using +Draw coils to help my shot speed but I then observed that +Reload coils were most effective on the SS for elemental.

My draw/reload efforts were instigated after I tried using boltblaster for a while and kept getting killed reloading it (Arena battle against Slitherfang... the most ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ annoying battle ever with the ♥♥♥♥ loadout).

That aside.... can some of you check my general findings on the hunter bows and tell me what you get with impact vs ele arrows?

Sun Scourge takes a while to reload so you need reload speed and draw speed coils to be able to fire arrows in quick succession. I havent upgraded it even once so I can only load one coil for now and I picked reload speed as a priority.

Will be working on maxing out all outfits and weapons before the final mission so that I can be well prepared for the arena challenges.

It's a feature, the good old dumb AF game design choice, you will see a lot of it in this game, it's like the other guy said you need reload speed coils to make it reload faster
