Extremely underpowered idea

In contrast, tiered quivers have no cooldown, cost much, much less MP, have higher range, pierce all enemies and have only a teensy bit worse stats.

I fixed the stats, is it better now?

Looks much more balanced, but a bit over the top now. The ATT on top of the DEX is extraordinarily powerful though. That’s more ATT than QoT on top of giving DEX. The paralyze duration is longer than tiered quivers, making it much more MP efficient. I suppose the reduced range and limited pierce slightly balances that, but 10 range is still a lot of range, and most quivers won’t hit 3 targets anyways. The damage is over the top FYI. 1800 average damage is way higher than even the quiver of shadows, which does 225x5 shots with no status effects (and also 10 range), although that does armor pierce.

What spread did you intend?

Bleed is a pretty weak effect, so that’s not overpowered.

Quiver of Thunder, Quiver of the Void, and now Quiver of Darkness…Hm, maybe we can stop. Idea is fairly balanced.

2 shots might be okay if you reduce the damage from 400 - 600 (500) to 150-250 (200).
Paralyzing enemies is one thing, making them bleed is another thing. Let alone bleed for 8 seconds.
Negative stats of -10 MP and -2 SPD does NOT make up for the fact the quiver is basically a UBATK in the form of a quiver (+8 atk). Additionally, look at this:

The other UT quivers don’t NEARLY come close when it comes to the upside stat-wise you’re giving for this quiver.
Ignoring defense? Are you high? QoS has that ability only because it doesn’t paralyze/slow enemies. Not only that, it can only hit one enemy before breaking.
tl;dr: This is not balanced.

1000 total damage, 8 second bleed, more paralyze than a t6, ignores defense, and bloody 8 atk
this idea is just awful
besides the encore already has enough whites
