As I said before, a crit via high DEX can also mean "more archery damage" if you think about it hard enough
Not true, ATK only shows for main hand in the UI....but there should also be hidden stats for ATK for archery (you can see this is true if you just level your archery up and see there is no progress for ATK value in the UI. But if you level up your 1hb or whatever main hand weapon you have, that ATK value rises).

STR influences ATK for melee weapons, just like DEX should influence it for archery weapons.
