(15*PD)-(1.5^(PD))

(15*0)-(1.5^(0))   = -1
(15*1)-(1.5^(1))   = 13.5
(15*2)-(1.5^(2))   = ~27.8
(15*3)-(1.5^(3))   = ~41.6
(15*4)-(1.5^(4))   = ~54.9
(15*5)-(1.5^(5))   = ~67.4
(15*6)-(1.5^(6))   = ~78.6
(15*7)-(1.5^(7))   = ~87.9
(15*8)-(1.5^(8))   = ~94.4
(15*9)-(1.5^(9))   = ~96.6
(15*10)-(1.5^(10))   = ~92.3
(15*11)-(1.5^(11))   = ~78.5
(15*12)-(1.5^(12))   = ~50.3
(15*13)-(1.5^(13))   = ~0.38

Your choice

is that symbolism for gay lovemaking?
Yes, I know from whence I came! Discontented as a flame, Upon myself I live and glow. All I grasp like lightning flashes, All I leave behind is ashes
Flame I am - that much I know!

Remember that PD is not optimal if you exceed 4 higher then the bow's minimum PD requirements, it arguably adds the amount of time you can hold a tight crosshair, but it does not add additional damage past that point (courtesy of Native Mechanics in Single Player).


Personally I like either 30/12 or 24/12.
No Athletics.


30/12 would be 10PD 4WM 3 PS, and (my personal favorite) the wonderful 24/12 is a super-lulzy and pretty effective 8PS 8IF 8PD 4WM 1ATHL (138 archery wpf 4 2H wpf) build (since 1 athletics only lowers wpf by 6 points), so grab a Yumi/Horn, one stack of Bodkins, and a long two hander and you can beat the holy hell out of anything and anyone. Having zero athletics is a non-issue if you are smart and think ahead and especially if you have a few clanmates to travel with.


I am actually extremely amused that after so long, the current bizzaro-land archery mechanics is forcing everyone to play with builds identical or near-identical to what I preferred when starting c-RPG (a bow, some arrows and a mean nasty two hander).

I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.

BUT
You become accurater and the speed of your arrow increases, so also the dmg.
Try 13 pd on a stf.
