Using bow to xbow swaps means 36 seconds in the first minute that you burst damage between bow and xbow.

bit gear intensive as you have to focus on both bows and xbows but
it should synergize well with deadly weapons etc.

you have a few free aps i put them into extra damage with the human line.

this is to synergize with the runearm out of mindsunder with your bbs in xbow form.

that's why i recommend the force line. but tovens is serious competition. (if you decide not to use your runearm(your an idiot))

Comments suggestions?
( i am aware you will lose the rune arm in bow form but you gain slaying arrows as an offset)

Sidenote if someone can confirm that arti sp enhancement opens up the AA line then i can gain a feat

str 10 +2(rage)+6(titans)+9(6+3exceptional)+2(madstone)+3 (3 piece abishai)= 32str or +11 dam (vs int dam +20 w/o)

I understand the concept here, but it falls short in game. Let me explain my point. This build highlights swapping between weapons that you are not proficient in. Not only are you switching between weapons that you get a huge minus from but you also have to swap ammo out in order to use either of the weapons. This takes time away from your damage output. By the time you swapped weapons after an Endless Fusillade, loaded the correct ammunition and casted the correct AA imbued arrow spell, you would be far behind the damage output from a 100% pure artificer who is using rune arm blasts and a repeater or an arcane archer using many shot. I don't believe this would be a useful build by any means. Maybe I can be proven wrong.

Yes and no

If I was to ignore the fact quickdraw drops the delay to nil reload time for arrows is sub 1 second

Or that rapid reload and rapid shot help bot situatons

The swap delay is virtualy non existant its as quick as clicking the weapon clicking the screen
And hitting the ms button literally takes about 1 second if you place the weapons close
Slaying can be prepped just like deadly weapons can specific arrows you coul hotbar them or
Just use returners

But I agree. It needs maths it back it up ill dump some testing data later this weekend
