So naturally, you might be thinking to also run a sword and board, but then that takes away from that pure archery feel - I'm no longer just an archer.

I don't want to avoid melee combat - I want to embrace it. How do I avoid melee combat? One hit kills.Īnd so that's pretty much been the logic process, but I want to change that. What is the problem with pure Archery? Melee combat. Plus, what's better than killing your opponent before they even touch you? So most of my characters turn out to be some sort of sneak archer, since that's just archery doing lots of damage in it's purest form, but this build can get pretty simple (read: boring) so I've been looking to spice it up, which prompts a series of question/answers. They're very versatile for an array of function, whether it's clearing dungeons or hunting game or killing dragons. As some of you know, I'm very partial to archery builds. it's something I've really wanted to experiment with. I've had this build in my head for some time now.
