FIRE arrows normal damage is very low, fire its much better but fire damage dont stack, so its beter to one of you shot fire arrows and other one flint arrows or even wood ones.. you must wait for fire to burn out then shot another...playing like that you will shot 30-40 an he will shot out about 50-60 arrows...

Yeah I know about waiting for the fire to run out(it usually runs out by the time I have a chance to shoot again because his animations seem way faster than they used to be and the burning status duration also seems to be shortened). The fact of the matter is he was still extremely healthy after 100 total fire arrows, despite that. You could argue that both of us firing Fire Arrows was probably not the best, but normal arrows suck ass and it's far too much work making anything else. You'd think a giant tree boss would have a weakness for fire, not take like 0.3-4% health damage from a single arrow+burning duration. I get that the bow nerfs were likely needed(or maybe not really since it seems to be the only valid method of killing certain bosses) but Elder really didn't need to take THAT LITTLE damage from them. His difficulty spiked a LOT from that nerf and the few likely buffs he received.
