Sniper Crossbowman build - help.

Hello. If you didn't see my thread about sniper crossbow reticule, look:

http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,6937.msg107843.html#msg107843

OK

here is my build at the moment:

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)

Strength: 15
Agility: 24
Hit points: 50
Unused skill points: 15
Skills to attributes: 8
Ironflesh: 0
Power Strike: 0
Shield: 0
Athletics: 0
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 0
Weapon Master: 8
One Handed: 1
Two Handed: 1
Polearm: 1
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 171
Throwing: 1

The question is, where should I put points now? With the knowledge that with 170wpf sniper crossbow's reticule is that good, I am wondering if i should put some more wpf into crossbows so its reloading time is shorter or i should put some points in athletics and ps...

My character is meant to be a PURE sniper crossbowman. Maximum effectiveness of my crossbow ftw.


So I thought about these builds:

Version A)

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)

Strength: 15
Agility: 30
Hit points: 50
Skills to attributes: 20
Ironflesh: 0
Power Strike: 0
Shield: 0
Athletics: 1
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 0
Weapon Master: 10
One Handed: 1
Two Handed: 1
Polearm: 1
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 190
Throwing: 1

Version B)

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)

Strength: 15
Agility: 27
Hit points: 50
Skills to attributes: 14
Ironflesh: 0
Power Strike: 0
Shield: 0
Athletics: 8
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 0
Weapon Master: 9
One Handed: 1
Two Handed: 1
Polearm: 1
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 181
Throwing: 1

Version C)

Level 30 (4 420 577 xp)

Strength: 15
Agility: 27
Hit points: 50
Skills to attributes: 14
Ironflesh: 0
Power Strike: 3
Shield: 0
Athletics: 5
Riding: 0
Horse Archery: 0
Power Draw: 0
Power Throw: 0
Weapon Master: 9
One Handed: 1
Two Handed: 1
Polearm: 1
Archery: 1
Crossbow: 181
Throwing: 1

So? I DO NOT want to be good with melee, I want to be "stealthy assassin" - that means, I want to be able to escape from dangerous place and reload fast.

My current fav build:

Version B)

I'd also go for alt B if being best at pure xbow is the goal. Without melee, you really need that athletics.

If you know how to block and want to stand any chance at all in melee, go for C. If you want to relocate all the time and snipe, go for B. If you just want the best reloading speed there is, go for A. I've got build B myself. It's a good one, but you'll be bouncing a lot, and you'll deal next to nothing in melee. I'll go for C myself when I retire.
I voted Gurnisson cause of his fucking bendy pike, I swear noone can roflcopter stab like he can.

If I had to choose, I'd go with B, but honestly I'd settle for 24 agi.
