Archer.
Looking to be an archer? One that is interested in a bit of close up combat at times without having to buff like an OG Archer would have to? Would you like to start with enough strength to be able to carry something more then a silk shirt? Do you require good fletching skills at an early level? This template may be the one for you. You can even start this one off without twinking.

(NOTE: There is no real need to specialize Bow. Most everything in this game has a low Missile Defense and hits are easily landable post Level 40. The only good that comes from specializing Bow is a slightly higher chance of criticle hits.)

(UPDATE: The new Elari Bow requires Bow to be specialized to activate. If you are interested in using this Bow, please refer to the Life/Archer template.)

This template definately requires 100 FOCUS and 100 COORDINATION. The others can be customized to your tastes. The 100 Focus helps with your magic skills, but also directly helps Arcane Lore and Healing skills. The 100 Coordination goes directly into your Bow skill, and also complements your melee defense skill.

After level 32 you could go for whatever your tastes prefer. If you plan on having lots of vassals, go for leadership at level 50. Otherwise you might like to have lockpick at level 60.
