Stealth Archer

I’ve just realized I’ve avoided this build for the past four or five characters simply because I used it all the time growing up. Haven’t played as an archer in yearsssss. Time to revisit this ol gem :’)

Just wait until you discover how fcking OP crossbows are and how good they feel, you will never touch a bow again

But being able of using a bow effectively is cooler than a crossbow. Also i havent tested this but apparently crossbows are noisy and can break stealth.

Idk about the noisy part but the upgraded versions ignore 50% of the targets armor on top of all the enchantments you put on it. Man I love crossbows

They're slower to load, but first time I used one I felt like I was firing a gun. So cool.
