The Bow & Sparrow is a weapon that fires sparrows which upon contact with enemy Super Animals and Emu idle 000 Giant Emus will track them for 6s7s.

For the sparrows to fly as far as possible, the weapon needs to be charged by holding the attack action. The weapon can be held in a charged state indefinitely, even during Super Jump Rolls. However, this reduces the Super Animal's move speed significantly.

Sparrows[ | ]

Tracked Super Animals are followed by a sparrow above their heads, seen even in the fog of war. Additionally, an indicator on the edges of the screen is shown for teammates. There is no limit on how many targets can be tracked simultaneously by the same Super Animal.

Unlike the projectiles of most Icon Guns Guns, the sparrows always deal the same amount of damage regardless of distance traveled. They also deal 40% of the damage to Health Points of Super Animals with intact Icon Armor  Armor.

Strategy[ | ]

It is recommended to keep to a safe distance when using this weapon, because of the charge up time and the travel time of the arrow. It works well in a group setting where your allies can follow up on it, dealing extra damage or being able to back off if the tracked target is setting up an ambush.

However, if you are playing solo, it is recommended to pair this weapon with something that has a high fire rate with a moderate range, such as the Gun-pistol grey Pistol or Gun-ak grey AK, to be able to follow up and make use of the tracking function. Keeping this weapon out while you're walking around can help, as you won't have to switch to the weapon and then switch back to follow up on it, but be careful in close quarter areas.

You can also use this weapon as a determent of sorts, as tracked targets are less likely to take risks in a firefight, or close to a firefight. You can track one target, and then let your allies deal with the tracked target while you try to track another, or switch to your other weapon and assist them.

Trivia[ | ]

  • Bow & Sparrow was created by CharacterIcon ThomasSledison Thomas Sledison.[1]
  • The weapon's name is a play of words with the word "Sparrow", the bird species, being substituted for the word "Arrow" in "Bow & Arrow".
  • The Cupid Bow & Sparrow Cupid Bow & Sparrow skin produces heart effects upon launching a sparrow from it that is completely unique to that skin.
  • The Cardinal Bow & Sparrow Cardinal Bow & Sparrow skin has a custom projectile, a custom sparrow tracker, and a feathery impact effect, some of these features are client side to reduce possible competitive impact.
  • Using Attach-bandolier Super Bandolier (Mainly due the reload speed buff) will cause the bow instead using the reserve ammo rather than the one from the bow itself.
