I'm a level 19 Assassin Options

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?

Yeah, I got myself an enchanted Ebony bow that does a base damage of 17, plus ten fire, ten shock.

I'm at somewhat of a disadvantage because I didn't really play Morrowind too extensively, so I'm really still learning the fundamentals of the best weapons and armor to utilize, and how to enchant them.

The only true weakness of my character now seems to be my armorer skill, which is only 12 or 13 levels away from being able to fix magic items...

Oblivion is an excellent game, however, and one of it's many brilliant points is that is does allow you to make mistakes and correct them, if you comprehend the mistake that you made...
