Please ZOS, see this. How many times do we need to ask for a valid archer build to work before it becomes strong enough in vet dungeons to work. We don't need a new class for this to happen, we just need bows to be better. I'm still going to try and make one anyway because I really want to play a pure archer, but please....give...bows...LOVE!

    Ever since the massive tsunami of tears in the beginning of ESO, bows have been the *** step child of the weapon lines. Got nerfed to oblivion and never recovered since. I still use a bow/bow build, and am allowed to run vet dungeons with my guilds with her, but yeah. The lack of bow love from ZoS is just as baffeling as the lack of warden love.

    A proper bow build is plenty good enough for vet dungeons. I just saw a video of a player hitting 35k solo with a bow/bow build. Granted, it was probably a really good player, but 35k far exceeds what would be valid for a group dungeon.

    wow, that's awesome, gives me hope, now I can have something to work with. What race was that? I will work on gear myself, since I will never have trial gear.

    You can do vet dungeons already. Normal Trials if you have friends. 30M DPS solo should be enough for that.
    Check bow/bow thread in Combat section.

    As for how many times to ask? Probably infinite times. So far it looks they either do not care or do not want them to be better. Usually nerf something every patch without addressing the DPS loss and once in a year notice you cant do veteran dungeons anymore so they buff you to their level again.

    I'm not sure on the race, but I'm sure the standard stamina races would all be fine. I'd personally probably go Khajiit since the Redgaurd's Adrenaline passive wouldn't help you at all on a bow/bow build.

    That's not a pure archer build, Bow/DW is "best in slot" for almost any stamina melee build.
