    i made this list awhile ago on my build,
    archer - med dmg, longer cast time for pshot (around 3secs), high ailments chance like tumble, stun..etc, more range, more crit chance, uses a bow
    gunner (sniper) - high dmg, shorter cast time for pshot (around 1secs), low ailment chance, less range, less crit chance, uses a bow gun

    My bow build generates incredible Aggro, far more than my bowgun ever did, at least it does for me. I've used both bowguns and bows, and I've found bows are better rank hogs, while bowguns are better for getting big lucky snipes. Bows are more reliable, thats why I like them. Also, going to update my build thread soon with new equips for 100% crit rate snipe.

    Edit: Aggro generation mainly has to do with the combos you're using, so it really has nothing to do with the weapon really.

    Use sneak attack in your combos to deal with the problem of too much aggro

    The diffirences are bow has more c,rate on snipe, bows have higher chances to inflict ailments, bows look cooler, bows gain less atk per point on dex, bows gain more stability, the dmg can be the same as a bg if the atk was the same as equipping bg
