My new archer
I PWN NOOBS
Welcome to SRO forums 
About your new char :
well you can't : adding strenght will give you much health, but realy few mana (then you won't be able to do much damage like an int character). You really have to choose cause most people agree that pure characters are better (pure int or pure str). You may also try an hybrid character (putting statpoints in str and int), then you should have a look in the guide section of the forum (search for Suicidegirl's guide).
If you want (like most people) try a pure character, and want to stick to bow, then i would recommend putting all your statpoints in strength, cause pure int archers are not considered a good build...
Most archers choose pure strength and fire (some pick cold instead). They don't choose lightning as a primary force mastery cause lightning has good magical buffs (which are not useful to a strength character), whereas fire as good physical buffs.
So... if you want your character to use 'magical' abilities, forget bow and choose either sword or spear as weapon and put all your statpoints in int... when you'll hit lvl 30 and more, you'll be able to cast 'nukes' which deal great damage (but you won't have many health points).
Anyway have a look to the guide section

The archers are very good. I'll suggest reading the hellsharpt's sticky guide. Put only stats on STR. I think the best choise is to use Pacheon as main mastery then Fire then Lightning. So get all three cuz you need them all.
