The Bow is one of the four types of weapons that Leila can use in battle to inflict damage onto the enemies and bosses she encounters, the bow is capable of inflicting light and powered shots from a distance.

This page covers a full list of all the Bows shown in the game.
Combat Mechanic
In Vigil: The Longest Night, each weapon has its own unique set of moves that changes Leila's stance and fighting style when she switches weapons. When a bow is equipped, Leila can execute light shots as well as charging it for an empowered shot, she can also perform a front roll or a backstep to evade enemy attacks, and she loses the ability to block just like the sword. A successful dodge will not inflict any damage and consumes stamina whenever Leila performs a roll or backstep.
Mastering the Bow
Vigil: The Longest Night introduces a character progression system in the game and for the Bow, it has its own skill tree. Whenever Leila levels up, she gains (1) Skill Point that can be used to unlock skills - unlocking skills for the sword in the Bow Skill Tree will further increase Leila's mastery of using the Bow which allows her to execute more combat moves whenever she uses the sword in battle as well as adding buffs such as increasing the damage of the bow.
