I'll just assume this is a PvP birdie. ;o
While dex is nice and whatever, in the 50-59 range, (unless you buy scaled glyph SETS), the fortified set is better then dex. You don't lose a terrible amount of damage, gain almost 100 armor, and 25 or so h/s even if you use the full custom set.
The build I used (could kill glyph dex birds, some glyph warbirds, and a few demonic birds) with fortified was about this:
6 focus
6 evade
6 blast
6 thorn root
6 break
6 shat
6 blinding
6 repulse
4 avian scream
3 thorn wall
I used these combos:
(killing dex birds quickly):
Thorn root, shattering scream, blast shot, repulse.
(warbirds):
Thorn wall, blinding, avian scream, thorn root, shattering scream, break, blast shot, repulse.
Bears and mages are just kind of guess work. Doing blinding works well against mages and bears, though you should kite bears as much as possible (don't worry about autoing) if they're str. If they're dex, just root-shat-break-blast usually kills them. Trick to mages is either breaking shield and kiting, or knocking their mana down to near zero without breaking shield, the shield and then doing cruel blast. (doesn't work vs MM very well lol).
I never really worked on dex much, but if you're going to use it, believe me.. Giving up damage for a strength plate isn't worth it. Just do pure dex and use raid/custom/drainer. But don't use drain bow, lol, use any pink bow. And recurve>xbow 9/10 times.
Good luck.
