[Akistar]

Yeah i also wanted to know what skills are good to invest skill points at.

It really comes down to what your preference is and how you want to play the game, I'm typically a group archer and do not solo much so I spec'd more for a group scenario.

Focus - Rank 5 (this one is pretty much necessity for any archer)
Blast Shot - Rank 5 (ditto as above)
Avian Scream - Rank 5 (for if/when you get surrounded)
Break Armor - Rank 5 (reducing a targets armor by 50 helps the tanks do their work)
Shattering Scream - Rank 4 (reducing a targets damage by 20 lets you and your group live *that* much longer against the bosses)
Repulse Shot - Rank 5 (I'm still up in the air on this one as I'm not 100% sure if it actually does damage or not, but it can get you out of a sticky situation

Again this tends to work for me really well in groups so I can focus more on the larger bosses and help take them out, all you really need is a good bow for the smaller guys.

Would be curious to see what everyone else

Blast Shot is a *MUST*
Focus is a *MUST*
Evasion is a *MUST*

everything else is up to your preferences as a player, but these three are vital.. they can make the difference between life and death.
