1. What skill makes you evade more?
2. I was told that quickness has a 250 cap for bow draw time is that correct?
If so is there any point is going over 250?
3. anyone know how bow damage is caculated? is it bow speed and dex?
4. Are pierce weapons deffo str/dex based?
5. What effect does weapon skill have? is it just the higher the number the higher % to hit?

1. Mythic states 50% dex, 50% quick. Testing shows only quick effects evaderate.
2. Not sure about this, I think its applies to evade, but weapon/bow should still be faster with higher quick.
3. Yes, as far as I know and coupled with bowskill ofcourse
4. 50% dex / 50% str (means you need +26 dex/str cap to obtain same increase as +26 str cap on a blade/blunt)
5. Makes you hit closer to your dmg cap, as far as I know it dont effect to-hit bonus. It should, but testing shows it dont.

These are my understandings, others might have it the other way around ;)

1. 50% dex, 50% qui (i have seen increases in evades from just having dex buff..so it does work this way)

2. qui does have a 250 soft cap afaik which stops it from increasing weapon spd beyond that number (there is even some talk that it still reduces the style dmg as if it did, but still not making you hit faster)

3. aye bow spd+100% dex..and ofc bow skill spec as well.

4. pierce weapons 50% dex, 50% str

5. Afaik..weapon skill is your chance to hit. seen many long test showing the diff between say 1200 WS and 1800 WS etc..it makes the MOST difference against defensive buffed classes...ie a fully buffed NS that evades alot..a high WS cuts down the evade rate etc

#3 - bow spd only changes dmg per hit, not dmg over time !
