Sure, bows may deal a ridiculous amount of damage per shot now, but I think a lot of people overstate the effectiveness of the bow. Considering it's less than one shot per second (assuming charge), and the fact that enemies won't necessarily line up neatly, you'll still be hard pressed to stay alive when being swarmed. For this reason, automatic rifles (or shotguns like the Boar Prime) are pretty much a must in the end game. If the game were designed to have fewer, stronger enemies, bows would be in a much better place, but right now they exist mostly to support the team by quickly taking out prime targets.
