charging bows

Do i want to fully charge the bow or just tap it quickly in the middle of combat

That depends on if you want a quick, low damage attack or a slow, high damage attack. You can do a full draw when you're attacking from stealth or at long range from your target, buy up close a quick attack is easier to pull off.

yeah i go for the critical with full charge from stealth but if i was in a whole crowd using short taps i was just wondering if that was the ideal method

In a multi-target situation, you generally want to use AoE skills rather then light/heavy attacks. A combination of Volley with Bombard(Arrow Spray Morph) spam to keep the enemies within the area of effect works well from 1-50 PvE. Though for obvious reasons, this won't work in PvP

Always weave in a skill rather then just using light attacks. This can be done by pressing Light Attack, then pressing an instant cast skill like Poison Arrow right after you press the button for a light attack, thereby canceling the animation for the Light Attack, allowing you to land a Light attack and a Poison Arrow at almost the same time. This adds a ton of damage, allowing you to kill fast and efficiently.
