You don't have a Ki bar, so Zen archery is fairly useless for you.

Zen archery allows monks to be centred with bows, as well as allowing you to use your wisdom modifier as your to hit stat with bows. Zen archery has absolutely nothing to do with bow damage output.

I think you possibly have mixed up the feats Zen Archery and 10 Thousand Stars, 10k Stars is virtually a second manyshot that allows you to fire multiple arrows at once based off of your wisdom modifier.

This build wouldn't qualify for 10k stars though, as 10k stars has a pre requisite of 6monk levels.

As it stands your build has next to no use for Zen archery.

Ok thanks, i must have read the feat wrong, i thought i was kind of like a weapons finesse feat but just with wisdom, thanks!

It's exactly like that, but weapon finesse doesn't effect your damage either, it only allows you to use your dex score to land hits on an enemy.

Do you understand the difference between stat to hit, and stat for damage?

Eg. Look at the auto granted feat you get from ranger, Bow Strength, this allows you to add your strength modifier to your damage.
