In Throne and Liberty, combining the Longbow and Staff offers a versatile hybrid build that balances ranged DPS with magical utility/support. Heres a breakdown of how to optimize this setup: Longbow & Staff Hybrid Build Overview Primary Role: Ranged DPS (Longbow) with magical burst/utility (Staff). Strengths: - High single-target damage (Longbow). - AoE spells and crowd control (Staff). - Sustain through Staffs healing or defensive skills. Weaknesses: - Squishy if focused (requires positioning). - Mana management can be tricky. Recommended Skills Longbow Skills (DPS Focus) Precision Shot High single-target damage. Rapid Fire Sustained DPS. Piercing Arrow Penetrates enemies (good for groups). Eagle Eye Increases crit chance/damage. Frost Arrow (if available) Adds CC. Staff Skills (Utility/Burst) Fireball Strong AoE/magic burst. Arcane Shield Defensive buff. Healing Wave (if available) Self-sustain. Lightning Chain Multi-target damage. Mana Regeneration Sustain for prolonged fights. Stat Priority Dexterity ( Longbow damage/crit). Intelligence ( Staff spell power). Vitality (survivability). Spirit (mana regen if needed). Note: Balance stats based on whether you favor Longbow (Dex) or Staff (Int). Hybrid builds may split points. Gear & Playstyle Tips Weapons: Prioritize Longbow for main DPS, swap to Staff for AoE/utility. Armor: Light/Medium armor for mobility and spell efficiency. Rotation: 1. Open with Staff (AoE/CC). 2. Swap to Longbow for focused damage. 3. Use Staff defensively (shield/heals) when pressured. Positioning: Stay at max range to leverage Longbows strength while using Staff for utility. Alternatives If you prefer more magic damage, focus on Staff as primary with Longbow for kiting. For pure DPS, consider Longbow + Dagger (stealth/burst) instead. Would you like a more specific focus (PvP, PvE, solo/group)?

The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
