I also prefer the not melee version, means that bows still are sort of fucked, but hey!

Bows are not fucked.

Bullet Barrier only deflects the first shot from anything ranged (and has this same special interaction up to four times against multi-shot), any shot beyond the first will go through. And Blade Barrier can't deflect Bow attacks. I suggest you read about Bullet Barrier's effects and interactions before posting.

Don't be a me~ :V
