Hmm from what i've seen so far it seems that a  longbowmen is fairly slow in moving around, so I guess awareness is key to play one, since you can't make a quick dash for safety, am I right?
i'm just trying to gather some information on playing style aswell, some tips would be appreciated. :)

thanks for the suggestions, i'll probably go with the 18-24 built, I ain't a very good snipe so i'll def need the accuracy!

What is the problem now?
If you go over 10 pd with the longbow you dont get any dmg increases ofc i  know that. :!: :?:
6+4=10  wich the max pd for longbow.
6+1= 7   wich is under the lvl cap so you get 14% more dmg than with 6pd.

Yeah, but thankfully agility alone helps your movement speed too, and 24 is going to be much more than the average melee.  Just need to watch for cav, but moreso the cav will need to watch out for you when you're 2-shotting their horses at mid-range, haha.

Ninja shielders and flanks will get you.  People think archery's safe, but you're really putting a lot of trust in your melee.  Though you can make long range shots, longbow works wonders at breaking melee lines at mid range as melee support.  With armor piercing ability you'll find that you're a very slow pike, but you've got several thousand weapon length.

I can't emphasize how amazing that sentence is both wordy and true
