You'll pierce just about every armor value in the game unless it gets up into the 20s like some of the bosses. Heavy draw makes it fire 10% slower, but gives 5% bonus damage that scales with Survival (good for your Ranger/Rogue combo), and +1 penetration, which is made even better when used by a Devoted. Saint Omaku's Mercy is geared more for support. It also grants a huge bonus againt spirits, deals 10% raw damage, and is a veil piercing attack (obviously) Veilpiercer comes legendary, gives a usable ability called Disruptive Arrow that disallows the use of activated abilities for several seconds. The 2 bows with Weightless Draw are called Veilpiercer (obtained from the quest New Gods of the Deadfire), and Saint Omaku's Mercy, found in the underground sea lab for the Rauati Quest in Sayuka. If you trigger it on a target that has 2 afflictions and you're using Deathblows, plus the penetration modal for war bow, and you have Devoted penetration bonus, you do unbelievably high damage, very very quickly, even to super heavily armed targets I have seen both of them trigger this ability over 6 times in a row.

I'm using both bows in my full party playthrough on a Scout (Sharpshooter/Rogue) and a Swashbuckler (Devoted (War Bow)/Rogue). Swashbucklers and Scouts have some dirty crit chance. Rogue's have dirty fighting, which gives them a 10% hit to crit conversion, and you can get more with fighter's Disciplined Barrage, or just by sheer accuracy bonus from the Ranger.

There are 2 bows that have an upgrade called Weightless Draw, which gives a 50% chance to trigger an instant cooldown on a crit.
