Popular Longbow Builds in Throne and Liberty
Longbow Builds are very popular in Throne and Liberty. Arguably the Longbow and Crossbow Build make for the strongest possible range setup in Throne and Liberty with the least risky playstyle due to being at max range almost all the time.
However, instead of the Crossbow you also have the option to use Daggers as a secondary weapon to enhance your critical hits for the Longbow. Passives are active on both weapons that you have slotted. If you are on your Longbow weapon you will benefit from the Dagger crit passives.
Popular builds are Ranged Longbow Crossbow DPS Build, Ranged Staff and Longbow DPS Build, or the Melee Dagger and Longbow DPS Build and the Melee Greatsword and Longbow DPS Build.
