Weapon: Longbow

[Giorgo]

I am at the Skirmisher trainer trying to figure out what attack feats to train for a longbow. I am not understanding how to separate primary attacks (Slots 1-3) from secondary attacks (Slots 4-6). Recommendations appreciated.

The Primary attacks have a gold border and the secondary attacks a black border.

I was not able to observe that, hard when you don't know its there and have vision/color difficulty. I will try again next time I play. Thanks

Look at the Stamina costs. Longbow's 123 will be in the 20s or 30s. 456 will be in the 50s-60s, roughly twice as much. Whatever the stamina costs this generality applies to all weapons.

Also, primaries tend to apply conditions, secondaries capitalize on them. Not universally true, but often.

Doing research on this topic, will post references here then write up a new post:

Sin's Martial Guide v1

Build Recommendation_Gather/Archer

Also: Role Features, Reactive Feats, Defense feats, Attack feats, Armor feats (medium vs. heavy), ammo/quivers (not yet implemented), solo play vs. group play, and feedback from archers participating in Tower Wars.

Did I miss any subsystem that has some impact on the use of longbows?

My WoT Archery feedback:

I'm switching to a class with an AoE.

Targeting players is far too difficult at the moment.
