Quote:Even for a rogue, a bow is more effective as a companion to spell attacks rather than as a primary attack. Bow attacks are perhaps a bit underpowered in Diablo. They can still get the job done, especially for cautious sneak around type players.
True enough-which is why my immortal hero rogues rarely make it past Nightmare caves. Of course, another reason is the damage done by skeleton archers and illusion weavers (unless an ROE is found). Too bad Diablo doesn't have evasion items which would work like pre-1.07 of thieves items.
