PW guide to range weapons

There are 3 types of range weapons in Perfect World: Bow, Crossbow and Slingshot.If you're a newbie,please read the following.

Bow has average minimum dmg and average maximum dmg, average attack speed and average shooting distance (1 metre shorter than crossbow, 1 metre longer than slingshot).

Crossbow has low minimum dmg, high maximum dmg, slow attack speed and far shooting distance.

Slingshot has average minimum dmg, average maximum dmg, fast attack speed, and short shooting distance.

For weapon choice, i used the quest bow for the first 20 levels, and change weapon to whatever range weapon i can get from from level 22 onwards.

I only used slingshot up to lvl 58 (which is shown under the stats chart below) since the dps advantage for lvl 68 slingshot when compared to lvl 65 xbow doesn't outweights the penalty of 2 metre shooting range it has.

This apply for slingshot beyond that level too.

Of course, archer can also use claw/glove which is the onli weapon with the closest stats as range weapon but I wouldn't recommend using claw simply cause it isn't really important once you hit level 13 and get your falling thunder skill.
