Need your advices on character creation

[SergeyM]

Hi everybody,
I don't have much knowledges about UO but I want to start playing on this server.
I like crafting, grinding and archers in online games ) . So I decided to create character with lumberjacking, bowcrafting and archery as my "main" skills. I want to chop the trees, craft the bows and hunt monsters for a loot and do PvP sometimes. My questions are:
1. Can I make gold with bowcraft/fletching skill?(what should I craft for sell?)
2. Can I successfully play as archer in PvM and PvP? (I like PvM more)
3. How much str/dex/int should I have if I play archer?
the other skills to train are: hiding, tactics, healing, magic resistance.
Thank you.

I would recommed to create your first character as provo archer with this build:

100 provocation
100 musicanship
100 archery
100 tactics
100 healing
100 anatomy
100 hiding

str/dex/int 100 100 25

Then you get some experience, drop healing & anatomy and get magery & meditation, final build should be:

100 provocation
100 musicanship
100 archery
100 tactics
100 magery
100 meditation
100 hiding

str/dex/int 100 60 65

Its basic starter template to get first gold and start to explore server content.

Also I would like to recommend read this guide
