You use a bow in group as dps? lol.

Leveling up I mostly soloed....
Around 20-30 I grouped a couple times and generally used melee. Though I would still bow stuff (like when pulling the mobs would get to the group with 70-80 percent life :P). or if people were OOM and needed to slow down pulls...I would go pull something for myself to bow down while I waited (since I can med while bowing).
Smaller groups though (duo with a mage, or team without a healer) I would hate-kite for the group (So no need for tank or healer). Flame lick and snare and run around bowing.
But solo is where I liked a lot. I made level 40 necromancers jealous of my ability to solo with a bow :P
Now that I'm 51, I would use my bow in a group to DPS as long as it is outdoors (since my proc works there). Double damage + procs + spells = not bad! I'm fairly sure I am stronger bowing than I am with melee....and if not, it is superrrr close.
Bows are insanely strong!!! I think the biggest realization of how strong I was was the other day when I teamed up with a level 59 shaman....we were playing around with giants.
I pulled some... and things were going fine....but then we started to get adds (and I was grabbing more I saw hehe). We had like 8 giants on us! The shaman was trying to root and slow and dot stuff....but he quickly ran oom....so I was flame licking to taunt off of him, running around, everything snared, bunched them up and was hitting them with my AEs (so much that the shaman got jealous and switched to his ae spell too).....the shaman almost died a couple times even o.O Under 30% life, where I ran to him and healed him out of low health agro....then kept moving and shooting....
Basically, I was dancing around them like they were nothing! 1 giant....10 giants...-shrug- no problem as long as I got arrows.
Maybe I should write an archery guide....
