To do the highest DPS with a bow, you want the lowest delay bow, with the HIGHEST delay 2h weapon. Damage bonus is calculated based on your primary weapons delay, and added per bowshot as un-mitigatable damage bonus.

There is no bow, regardless of damage, that can do more damage than this configuration, at least until this "bug" of damage bonus applying to bow shots is changed or resolved.

Nope, it works. Only issue besides pvp you’re gonna burn through two bags of arrows on most raid encounters. Dagarn bow 100% sub one second shots. Even a 4 min which is quite short is twelve stacks. Earthshaker or weighted plus an exquisite is quite good though and manageable.

Focus on str otherwise. Dex helos for crits but I wouldn’t gear for it at a detriment. If planning on bowing in a perfect world grabbing VoG, Dex before Focus, or being buddies and begging and enchanter for boon would work.
