Why People Say Crossbowman Does More Damage?

Bow - (DEX * 0.9 * 3.4 * Skill Mastery + STR) / 100 * Weapon Attack
Crossbow - (DEX * 0.9 * 3.6 * Skill Mastery + STR) / 100 * Weapon Attack(Due To Higher Multipier For Crossbow)
2.The Higher Your Level,The different In Damage Would Get Even Higher!
3.Crossbows Always Have A Higher Weapon Attack Compared To Bow Of Same Level.
4.Due To Need For More Str To Equip With Bow,Crossbowman Would Have More Dex.

Advice for Blessing Of Amazon Or Focus
Blessing Of Amazon adds Accuracy(Passive)
Focus adds Accuracy & Avoidablity(Supportive)
From the the description above,you might say that Focus is better.But,you had to cast Focus every 300sec at the cost of 16Mp,whereas Blessing of Amazon need not be cast.Accuraccy is somehow useless to an archer as Dex adds accuraccy too.Most people get Focus for the Avoidability it provides.Pure DS/AB build is more or less for those who had nowhere else to place their Sp.Blessing Of Amazon or Focus depends on whether you wish to cast another skill or not.If you are lazy to cast,don't pump Focus,you wouldn't get anything if u didn't cast it.On there other hand,Blessing Of Amazon at least provides you some accuracy(Better than nothing) & no casting is needed.
