The Compound Bow is a bow weapon in Far Cry 5 and Far Cry New Dawn. It is used by The Junior Deputy, The Security Captain, Guns for Hire, Jess Black, and The Chosen.
This weapon is particularly good for stealth, as firing and killing does not alert nearby enemies.
It can shoot Arrows, fire arrows, and explosive arrows.
