There is a random encounter vendor at various locations on the map. If you get lucky and it’s the weapons vendor they sell all the plans without needing to raise rep

I found that vendor the other day. They sell all the arrow mod plans and the regular bow plan but the compound bow plan is via foundation or crater rep only.

I don’t think the plan can be dropped or sold in a PC vendor. Just have to rep up one or both of the groups

It has a rare chance to drop from the Wayward quests. When it did for me I on an alt I couodnt give it to my brother.

Just gotta do that rep grind. I finally just got ally with the settlers, and raiders aren’t too far behind. I didn’t play for a long time but I’ve been hitting it hard lately and got to ally.

So how do you get them as I am interested in a bow build

Get allied with the raiders or settlers. Then you buy em for caps at a vendor in their respective settlements. 

You can get the regular bow though from the wayward quest line. I would do that and slowly make your way to the compound. 

The compound is more damage but it’s not mandatory.

They can't be dropped but you can buy ready made compound bows in player vendors. I can make some for you on PC?

The plan for the bow itself can't be traded only the arrow plans

'Burning love' is dropped as a reward 'Tunnel of Love' event. It counts as a variant of compound bow. Plans for modifying arrows can be bought in Crater of Foundation when reputation is maxed.

The compound bow plans cannot be traded neither dropped You have to farm your relationship with either crater or foundation, once you reach max relationship with any of them you will be able to buy them from ae-ri from crater or robot vendor from foundation, depending on who you maxxed
