Doing certain spawns, I love to play my Archer, but often times will get raided by a rival or PvP Guild. I was wondering if there are such things as PvP Bows, or are Bows just not good or powerful enough? If these are worth keeping in my Pack for just in case, then I want to know which bow or bows to have 'at the ready'.
If Bows will work in PvP, what is the best type(s) <Bow and Crossbow, Short Bow?). Which ones would you carry around?
Is the Elven Composite Longbow that uses 'Serpent Arrow' (since it poisons) even worth it?
Does Damage Increase work on Humans or just MOBs? Would you remove Damage Increase on a PvP bow?
Does an Archer make a good PvP template?

Resist 120
Tactics 100

Haven't played an archer in a long time myself so I'm just curious, what does 100 Poison do for an archer now? Used to be that poisoning was worthless on an archer.

12x,
According to UO Guide: if an Archer has Poisoning and uses an Elven Composite Bow with the Serpent Arrow Ability:
Serpent Arrow is an Archery Special Move that was introduced by the Ultima Online: Mondain's Legacy expansion in the summer of 2005.
Fires a snake at the target, poisoning them in addition to normal damage with a successful hit. The archer must be skilled in poisoning and nimble of hand to achieve success. ## Mana Cost: 25
## Serpent Arrow mechanic: based on your Poisoning skill, Archery skill and Dexterity, you have a chance to apply poison within a certain range of strength.
## Serpent Arrow causes a slight Karma loss when successfully poisoning a victim.
## In order to gain Poisoning skill using this move, you must: ##succeed with the ability (i.e., actually poison the opponent);
##roll a level of poison that's in the correct range for your poisoning skill
##succeed with the skill gain chance roll.
(Question is, does it automatically poison the target if the roll is successful or do you need to have poison potions in your backpack for it to work)???

You do not need any poison potions.

I'd go Ninja over Poison Any day, but that's just me. Honestly against most Opponenets 75.4 Chivalry isn't going to do much for you. Vermin Talisman / Specific Slayer weapons will get you close enough to the damage cap in most cases. If you are spawning with the Template you want 120 Resist. Its 120 or nothing as far as resist in pvp is concerned.
I'd Drop Chiv and Go Ninja/Bush or Ninja/Poison. You Gain Confidence from Bushido, giving you a nice little heal on the run from some opponents. Poison will help your Poison resistance, and you can lob DP'ed Shurikens at your Opponents. Only need 80 Poison though.
-
Ninja does sound like a better alternative. I can still throw shurkiens deadly poisoned. After I deadly poison the shurkiens I can but Bushido back on and use recall scrolls to get around?
With this template, what would you suggest instead? Stone poisoning and replace with Ninja? And stone Chiv and replace with Bush?
Anatomy 100
Archery 120
Chiv 75.4
Heal 101.3
Poison 100
Resist 120
Tactics 100
-
Drop healing to 90.
-
Actually they changed it so You have to have poisoning to DP with Shurikens/Fukiyas. I think some guild out there abused a shuriken script a little bit........ ;D ::)
-
I was the ninja/poison template and very much abused throwing shurikens around :)

Hi,
for PvP the best "lammer" template is the archer stealth with ninjitsu. It's very easy to kill any pvper with lower hit points, hehehehe. I have a player with this template and i can say that it's fun =D
Archer 120
Tactics 120
Ninjitsu 100
Hiding 100
Stealth 80
...
My pvpver have Anatomy and Heal, but you can choose other skills as poisoning or medit for specials.
Cheers!
