I've read hundreds of posts on the internetz where people complain most their characters end up being sneaky archers. This has never happened to me, well it sortoff does but it's Necromancy and that's more of a support skill than a Main.
So can anyone explain the fun of bows to me like I was 5? Because as much as I try I just cannot enjoy playing an archer in ES.
Oooh I see, the poison thing actually makes perfect sense since using the arrows can have the same effects as spells like Paralyze and Frenzy while only investing in 1 perk tree... yes yes that definitely sounds fun. If I ever turn my HUD on again I'll give that a shot. It hard enough to loot items and chests without a "Press __" notification, I can't imagine how hard it'd be to gather ingredients.
I think stealth archery can be fun if your character has a genuine weakness such as 0AR or no melee capability. This would make that stealthy approach genuinely necessary and present a real risk of getting it wrong and jeopardising your character... if the AI wasn't so piss poor.
Truthfully you can breeze through the whole game by enemies off while taking advantage of the stupid AI. Why people do this is beyond me, as is why assassins are far and away the most popular character choice.
No way. Demonhunter.
