You need more WPF ,90 is way too low.
And why only 2 WM? with 18 agility you ca have 6 weaponmaster wich gives you the wpf you need.
http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,9160.0.html Try a build from this. You will see that you are more effective and deadly with one of these.

I would seriously suggest respeccing your character especially if you wish to go archer, or wait until you retire (your nealy there)

Basically a good archer build is 18/21. With this you get to use the longbow and rusbow so the 2 main damage bows. Not only that but 6 ironflesh and 6 powerstrike with an archer is not needed, those points should go into power draw, athletics and weapon master. However what i can see from your pic is that your going horse archer, in this case your build should in fact be 15/24.

I will post my current horse archers build.....

Strength:15
Agility:24

Weapon Master:6
Athletics:2
Riding:6
Iron Flesh:0
Shield:0
Horse Archery:4
Power Strike:0
Power Draw:5
Power Throw:0

Weapon Proficiency

One Handed:2
Two Handed:1
Polearm:1
Throwing:1
Crossbow:1
Archery:162

Unfotunately i put 2 into athletics with this horse archer, if i were you i would not put any in athletics, instead i would then go 7 weapon  master with 7 riding

And spend the loompoint to a bow.
Always loom the bow before you loom your arrows.
Because you get +1 damage and +1 speed to the arrow.

No one seems to give the most useful advice to you:
In crpg, archery and melee can not go well together. To be a good archer, you have to be a dedicated archer with no power strike and no other wpf.
Every point spent to power draw, decreases your archery proficiency by 14 (or 13). With the build you have, you have less than 0 wpf actually. So your power draw has gotten lower than 6 even.

Think about it, if it does worth going for archery. You will have no option but to shoot and run like a peasant, while another character at your level will be swinging his highland claymore and destroying everything in it's way.

Not true.  My archer has 6 ps and 95 1h wpf.  I sacrificed some archery wpf for it, but I'm still fairly accurate, especially when using tatar or horn bows.

Does HA lowers archery wpf?

Otherwise you should be able to use your 6 PD with wpf > 84 (6*14), (although not very accurately).

Well, let's say I didn't find it as useful as other builds but good luck with it. I might be wrong.

HA decreases your accuracy on foot or if you stand with the horse.
I Tested it a few times and a 15/24 Ha on foot is so accurate like a 15 /18 footarcher.

Everyone suggests respeccing i would suggest grinding your last 1,5m xp and retire, otherwise yoll lose 3,5m xp, you better just grind the last part for the loom/gen, waste of your time to respec so close to 31.

Ill let the help on builds to the pros cause i dont have a clue what build that is..
I loot corpses of their golden teeth.
But he'll be around somewhere between Heaven and The Devil, because neither of them will take him in, and he'll be farting loudly and singing a filthy song.

i'll be there at around

I am going to necro this because I am wondering if a 13 powerdraw character is possible? Or will I only be able to use 8 (example) of my powerdraw because I have too little wpf?
I know that's how it is for throwing, but how is it for archery?

In my understanding this wont work, cause you can only go 4 above the max PD of the bow your using, The highest bow is a 6 PD bow so if you get that one you are only using 10 of the 13 PD, so going annything above 10 would be useless. But you can use 10 PD (altrough you wil be extreemly inaccurate)

I used it on dtv, it was not accurate at all (if you are shooting crowds of bots), but it was very slow and i couldn't even onehit (body shot) weaboos with mw bodkin arrows.
