Need help to make a choice for improve profiencies

[isatis]

With 6ps you are a hybrid man, therefore go for hybrid like built!

but, as you are an archer, go for archery

therefore, you hsould do the medium ! just like you said!

[Algarn]

I need to test the accuracy then :/

[Fredom]

Well, testing the accurary would be best for you I guess. Try a STF char, but I recommend to not using Bodkin arrows any longer. I loved them, liek everyoneelse I guess. But after the fix/nerf/patch... 10 weigth per Arrowpack is too much. Maybe you could try your accurary AND at same time  Tatar Arrows or some others.

You'll see a much bigger difference between 50 and 100 wpf than you will between 161 and 170wpf.

IMO the points required to increase by 9wpf is not worth it.

I would take 1h to at least 75wpf..

83 1h and 164 arch sounds most beneficial to me.

If I've worked it out right you have 8 weapon master. This leaves 0wpf points so non are wasted... but this of course depends what level you are planning to reach.

[Algarn]

I'll reach the level 33, but I'll end this at 34 maybe

[Algarn]

I DONE IT !!!!! I reached yesterday the level 33, thanks for all your tips, my character's build now is :

Strength:18
Agility:24

One Handed:66
Archery:168

Weapon Master:8
Athletics:3
Iron Flesh:3
Power Strike:6
Power Draw:6

I made the choice to improve a lot my archery , and to make a decent 1handed skill ... So , I can only say thank you everyone ! 

[Phew]

The lousy archers whined/quit when the devs increased arrow weight, the good ones adapted like Algarn here, and mess people up at range and in melee.

[Algarn]

yeah , that nerf is annoying and unrealistic , but I don't care because i don't kite

Realism at that moment sacrificed for game balance.

Anyways, shame I didn't reply in time, but you basically nailed it. If you are using the short swords, 66 wpf is good enough. They are nasty little swords. I would have recommended 80 though since wpf gives a good bit of damage. Then again, minor issues. Well done on your conversion.

+1. If only more archers were like you, they wouldn't have had to increase the arrow weight.

Hey algarn, I am aiming towards a similiar build at level 30; and I believe I will take 3 power strike over other skills. My build will be like this:

Level:30

Strength:18
Agility:24

One Handed:50 (ish)
Archery:170 (ish)

Weapon Master:8
Power Strike:3
Power Draw:6

I will probably use long bow and bodkins. It is same as you, so can you recommend me a nice 0 slot weapon?

[Algarn]

Short arming sword is OP

29 pierce
29 cut
and that's cheap ^^

But your build makes you really slow and weak , you should make 18/21 , and spread points on IF, ATH, and more PS 

[Ronin]

With this 10 kg arrows, I'd never spent into athletics as an archer anymore. The mobility and kiting ability coming from 7 athletics hardly makes a difference (because of weight). If someone catches me, I usually fight with 3 ps and I must say my blocking skills are good enough for me to earn some survival time. Someone comes to help me after a while

I was using broad short sword, short arming seems quite nice and maybe it is even better. Gotta try out

[CrazyCracka420]

I'd vote for 100 1h wpf, but I'm not an archer, so I can't say for sure if you'll be losing a lot more accuracy or damage.  That being said, the difference on a 1h between 75 WPF and 100 is not even noticeable.  I was doing just as good with 70 WPF in 1h as I normally would with 119wpf.   But I use a MW KAS

[Glyph]

Does the 10 extra wpf in archery really matter much? any screens maybe?
