How do about this?

[Gurnisson]

Won't work come the next patch, since War Bow will take two slots.

You should also plan your build for lvl 30 cause you'll spend about 30 hours on lvl 30 and when you reach 31 you'll probably retire, so its best to reach your optimal build at lvl 30.

[Casimir]

drop that shield and the shield skill, put convert 2kill points to attribute at level 30

Put your remaining point into PS and you've probably got a better build.

[Keshian]

Also, you probably are better off taking 15-20 points from the melee side of wpf and adding it to archery, you see a lot more dramatic difference as wpf is more important for archery than melee as it not only affects draw speed(swing speed) and damage like melee but also a third factor, accuracy.

[EponiCo]

Only convert 2 points (=18/18 or 15/21 stats on lvl 30). I'd go with PS maxxed and 5 shield, more WPF in archery instead.

[Malaclypse]

Go 1hand no shield, use the shield points on Power Strike, go 6/4 PS/Ath to get 18/21 at level 13 by converting (Power Draw and WM will stay as they are). For WPF, I'd say either go 79/154 melee/archer or 91/150. These are both solid enough builds that use all of your WPF points.

I have a question. What affects the distance shooting? type of bow? WPF?

I would like to play the Khaergit 1h/shield spec, my only doubt or the shooting range.
Opinions, advice?

[Beauchamp]

ammount of arrows and type of bow you have (also dmg is reduced with distance as far as i know)

with 1h+shield you will never take more than 1 arrow stack so distance shooting shouldn't really be your problem - especially not with khergit bow that is useless for that.
