Any sort of bow advice??

I just started a newb bow char and i have no idea what i'm doing . . . . any help with common bow skills, combos, anything . . . .?

 

Depends on which skill tier you have unlocked already, but you can base your build on the pictures below for the time being.

Spoiler

Snipe is an essential skill for high defense bosses, especially during ultimate mode runs. Effect lasts 5 seconds.
Moeba Shot is mainly used as a cheap opener. Having a stargem works fine too.
Magic Skills are not really required.

In fact, they're not really needed at all now.

Cross Fire doesn't really need to be put in a combo when charging it up.
Long Range affects Snipe but not Cross Fire. Add points if you like.
Use sneak attack only if you can't afford stargems/minus aggro equipments or no access to minus aggro food buff.

All in all that uses around 171 sp. This is basically the skeleton of a sniper build. Add or remove skills according to your needs.
