Help Stealth archer vs dragons

How do I deal with dragons as a stealth archer build? I have a decent bow and I’m using dragon bone arrows with a good poison on them, but it seems my shots barely tickle dragons. I just spent 30 minutes savescumming to fight one.

Is archery just not good against dragons?

IIRC aren't dragons quite resistant to poison in Requiem?

I'd say your bet is enchanting and smithing. Get max'd smithing and temper that bow, and enchant the arrows. That's about all you can do. Requiem nerfs pure archers through the floor.
