I'm a level 19 Assassin Options

[Ennui]

and I need help finding a better bow. Right now, my bow is a regular Dwarven that deals 10 damage...I just shut down my fifth Oblivion gate and the enemies have such a high level of health that it takes 6 or 7 arrows just to kill a Cinnefear, much less a Daedra Spider or Daedroth. Needless to say, I had to resort to running past most of the enemies in the actual tower. As a matter of fact, I really need better gear all around. Do you know of any places to steal high level light armor/bows?

To any marksman-type character, I HIGHLY suggest looking on TESsource to get the Higher Bow Damage plugin. I totally understand what you were talking about, and I chanced upon the mod. It makes your life a lot easier, but not overpowering. I felt it was really stupid/expensive to shoot 5-10 arrows in one of the Clannfears in the gates, and that's not counting some of the Daedroths and such. The mod bumps up the damage for bows, balancing it, I guess. I think bows seem to do less damage even with a "higher" attack because of the time it takes to pull the string back, let the arrow fly, etc. I have the mod, and am loving it. Might wanna check it out.
