just some ideas ive been throwing around
70+ Great helm
Any shield 50+
Medium or longbow 70+ (start off with longbow then switch to medium if desired, archery subskill sub skill only affects specific aiming % but you won't be using them that often)
70+ weapon of choice
Bowstrings 50+ (Always have a few extras on you. I have 10 in my backpack at all times)
3 Quivers
The self sustained archer is someone who enjoys PVPing but doesn't want to be in the front lines. The Archer will eventually reach a point where he can make and imp his own bows and arrows, and he can then sell the extras for a profit, or to fund his need for tools and armor. The Archer doesn't wear plate armor as it slows him down too much. He prefers either high ql Studded (80 or 90+) or chain (70+) or a mixture of the two. When weilding wielding a bow enemy archers will see that you are not weilding wielding a shield and will target you so not only must you have shield skill but you must also practice being able to unequip your bow and equip you shield as quickly as possible. This is made easier by keeping the left arm and right hand part of the body section open and visible at all times. Your shield must also be moved to the top of the inventory screen for easier access. Make sure you practice this a few times and try to be able to do it in under 5 seconds (Quicker is better). A normal scenario is you have your bow equipped and are flinging arrows at the enemy, one of them notices and 3 people begin to shoot at you, you rotate your left side towards them diaganoly diagonally and then uneqip unequip your bow and equip your shield, you then activate your cotton and begin to heal yourself. Once the enemy realizes you have a shield equipped AND a great helm on they will stop attacking you. If they don't then continue to heal yourself as you block the majority of their shots and start collecting free arrows.
You will want to eventually have three sets of carpenty carpentry tools.
1 Pure Coc high ql tools (Skill set) 70+coc (70ql when you start out and then eventually 80 or 90)
Your on the go fletching tools are what you will take with you when you go hunting or when you ride out to PVP.
For logs what I normally do is make an entirely seperate separate BSB just for these specific logs. I then make shafts from each log until it is 4kg and put it in the BSB. That way it doesn't decay and you can take it with you for long trips without it having to slow you down at all.
You can get a CoC log as well for grinding, just make sure you don't put it in the BSB!
If you have people that can give you high ql logs/bowstrings/bows/arrows and you wish to get into PVP as quickly as possible then you can ignore woodcutting, bowyery, fletching, repair, ropemaking. You will have to buy arrows though so you will need to buy silver from the shop or take up another craft to make money with. You can also survive off of just looting arrows during and after battles, but being a self sustained archer is so much better for you in the long run. In the end it all comes downt to play style and this is just a guide, tweak the skills to fit what you enjoy.
And now for the skills. I have put an asterix Astrix next to the skills that are bare minimum needed to actually be usuful in a pvp battle (damage wise).
