I like the other suggestions here...stay xbow/2h but focus more on being "hybrid" than straight up xbow. Carry a 1 slot xbow (crossbow) and carry 1 steel bolt and then carry a 2h/2slot sword. Might have to put more into str than agi (not your standard 15/24 xbow/2h build).
Maybe do 21/18 (at level 30)
convert 8 skills to atts
4 IF
7 PS
6 Athletics
6 WM
120 2h
117 xbow
That might not be enough xbow WPF for you to snipe, so maybe change the WPF's around some?
