Artifacts which stack to the ability
Discussion
Archery gets a bonus of 50% at expert, which is superior to offense at expert which is at 30% (but offset if forced to melee). This is one of the most powerful skills if used correctly. Works great with the artifacts the Golden Bow and the Bow of the Sharpshooter-- a combination or super artifact found in the Shadow of Death expansion.
