Helping these fans is the exact purpose of this guide, and players will find full details on how to get a Compound Bow inFO76in the following paragraph.
To put things simply, obtaining the Compound Bow inFallout 76requires players to reach a certain reputation rank with the Settlers, an NPC faction that was added as part of the Wastelanders update. Specifically, fans must increase their reputation with the Settlers to Ally, which requires them to go through the Cautious, Cooperative, Friendly, and Neighborly ranks. This means that it may take players a bit of time to get a Compound Bow, but they will have access to a standard Bow in the interim.

With respect to how to improve one’s reputation with the Settlers inFallout 76, that is done by completing certain story quests, working on daily faction quests, and generally behaving in a way that supports this group of NPCs. Players can check their currentreputation rankwith the Settlers through the Social menu, and this allows fans to keep track of how close they are to Ally and obtaining the Compound Bow.
Once a player has reached Ally with the Settlers inFO76, getting the Compound Bow is as simple as usingBottle Capsto purchase the plan from Sunny, a vendor located in the Settler camp called Foundation. To note, players can also purchase a plan for the aforementioned standard Bow from Sunny at the Cautious reputation rank if they would like to.

However, that information has not been confirmed at this time, and thus players that have their hearts set on getting a Compound Bow may wish to start the Wastelanders update by improving their reputation with the Settlers.
