Trivia
- This is the second bow introduced in the game after Crossbow.
- It is categorized under assault rifle category even though it is actually not an assault rifle.
- The Compound Bow design is mostly based on the one of athletic archers who usually use in archery competition.
- When firing in B mode, the arrow will leave a light trail which is similar to Thunderbolt's. The light trail could penetrate anything, and could go as far as the map goes.
- For some reason, every time the user cancels a charged shot, the next time he/she equips it, it will fire a null shot.
