Depends how would you like to play it.

For normal times I would go for:


 * Left to right correspond to top to bottom on the skill tree*

T1 - Sprint 0/4    Rapid Shot 1/1   Great Rapid Shot 4/4

T2 - Arrow storm 4/4   Arrow Rain 1/1   Bow Mastery 1/3

T4 - Lightning Reflex 0/4   Manslayer 1/5   Bow Proficiency 5/5

T5 - Undead Slayer 1/4   Entangling Shot 1/1   Barbed Entanglement 0/4

T6 - Nimble Dodge 0/3   Golem Slayer 1/0   Magic Arrow 6/6

T7 - Ogre Slayer 1/2

T8 - Flaming Arrow 0/1   Aimed Shot 1/1

T9 - Expert Slayer 4/4   Eagle Eye 2/4

(7 points to spare)

Few things to note:

[Bow Mastery] is pointless since you can literally speed your bowman with items to the max with cheaper alternative (two stalker rings). One point in to open up skills

[Barbed Entanglement] Sound like a good option but the damage provided is too lacking therefore better drop it off. Alternatively one point in it if you have any to spare.

Since This is mainly for PVE grind, archers will hardly get damaged so defensive are a neutral skill to have. Only take them if you have points to spare.

[X Slayer] is totally optional but it is good to have at least one skill point in all four types. Recommandation on which slayer to max is [Manslayer] and [Undead Slayer] since all encounter will definitely contain a certain amount of both. [Golem Slayer] is generally useful only if last boss farming is intended.

Good luck hunting - Doombuggy
