This article is about the bow type. For the weapon of the same name, see Flatbow (weapon).

A flatbow is a bow type. Flatbows have a long range, short refire rate and high arc.

Flatbows' combination of range and speed makes them excel at pressure.

The combination of maximum range and high arc also makes this the ideal weapon for pulling.
