Do you use both hands when shooting a bow?

Post by Pez »

Hi guys, tried the game last night with default party to have a look at the game, getting used to the gamepley etc, and I want to restart it today with a custom party and I really want to use a bow with my rogue, but im not sure if you need both hands to shoot or not. Common sense says yes, but I'd appreciate a first hand opinion. ;)

Thanks.

Thought so, but I wanted to be sure. So if I use a bow with my rogue I only have the free hand in my mague to carry torches, etc. Hmmm.

Thanks for the quick response.

Personally my fighter carries the torch. My Rogue carries the compass.

DOH! So that is what you do with it. I must have had brain lock because I never tried to actually hold it
