In Skyrim I played a archer/assassin and was going to do the same again. In that game you can focarcgery all the way from the start. Is that possible here that you've seen or is it better to start with a weapon and shield or weapons first?
Haven't been able to play yet but should be able to tonight.

As far as I know archery has been considered anywhere from quite weak to mediocre throughout beta.
I played a nightblade assassin/archer type character in beta and did quite well. Melees have many control abilities and gap closers, but you have about as many gap creators. Your dps might tend to be a bit lower than a melee. With clever use of terrain and/or a nice ambush from max range I was able to win the vast majority of 1v1 encounters and at one point I won a 1v4 against a bunch of noobs
In PvE / questing relying on the bow worked just fine for me, but then the questing content is pretty easy.
