Folks, ranged guys are badass. Maybe not quite the damage output of melee guys but definitely deadly. I had a “skirmisher” party with medium armed melee guys that used javelins at first and a bunch of archers (5 and 7 respectively), while everyone fell back and softened the enemies up. Not much really got close to being dangerous to them. Just block any big baddies as best you can with your javelineers and pick everyone off with archers. Mix in xbows for armored and bows for light/no armor. I prefer xbows overall, but bows with focus are pretty stupid good against squishy enemies.
