Musket vs Bow 220 lvl damage difference

Why same white items 220 lvl have different damage values?

For example:

Superior Musket 344-380.

Superior Wrech Bow 341-512.

Maybe Musketer skills have very good scalings? But isn’t it better to normalize damage on those weapons, but nerf instead the scalings?

Or maybe muskets have higher attack speed? Someone knows?

I don’t know much aboit Musket skills, but judging fro! stats alone the musket has one slot more and weights less.

Also muskets are one-handed weapons I think. At least the tooltip says so. “Useful when having a free hand is more important than having more attack power.” I.e. could be combined with a secondary weapon for extra stats or utility (arde dagger? bow?)

Nah, Muskets are two-handed.

Really?

That’s what the tooltip here says.

What does the ingame tooltip say? Maybe they were planned to be one-handed like crossbows but that got changed during development without adjusting damage?

Yeah, ingame is the same text. Quite stupid, coz rifles always were two-handed, in real life and in games.

Musketeer skills way out scale bow skills. My lv15 barrage with +30% damage from attributes with Khasti bow deals less damage than lvl1 Musketeer skills with no attributes. (Covering Fire, Headshot, Snipe)

This is because the musketeer skills scale off % of your attack(always above 100%)+ a flat damage increase, instead of just a flat damage increase like bow skills.

I belive Barrage does 5 total hits and have base AoE attack ratio of 1, do you know how many total hits covering fire does or its base AoE attack ratio?
