Long Bow or Short Bow?
Up to now I've used short bows on my hunter character, but am thinking of switching to long bows for the damage (to make up for lack of pet). I wonder, however, if the extra damage is worth the loss of some of the skills in the short bow tree. My max discipline level in either bow would be 15.
I currently have Lightness at 4 which gives a +12 bonus to dexterity. Would losing this bonus be a huge loss to evades, or even to the bow damage dexterity tweaks? Evades are important because I play a ninja hunter. (The only other short bow skill I have points in is Dual Shot). The long bow tree does have Omnipresent which is a passive concentration increase. I know some people say concentration is worthless, but it is supposed to increase spell hit chances (good for ninja). The only other long bow skill I would put points in would probably be Shield Piercing. Does long bow damage (and range) make up for what look like better skills in the short bow tree?
