if your full int you'll 2hit archers, if your full str you need at least +3 i think.

Most definitely.

to kill, your attack should be as high as it can be.
imbue increases attack power, so yes always do imbue.

before +4, it cant break

+4 to +5 it theoretically can but nobody has proven that yet

over +5 it can break

and from +4 on, put steady and immortal on it
steady to not get durability reduce, immortal to stop it from breaking

and with stones, it cant break. just with elixirs

ok then if i make it +2, +3 , +4 can i 1 or 2 hit bandits without imbue

thats a bit of a hard question.

do your other gears have added str and int?

i think its best for you to just try it out; see how much dmg you do
now and estimate if you can take em down in one hit less if you +
the bow.

Go and shoot a bandit without imbue, I doubt you'll even take 1/4 of its health. You can't expect 1 hit archers even as pure str without imbue unless you have some kinda of Seal of Supernova Blackhole bow. Anyways, burning pots should be the least of your worries, one thing I hated about farming at 16 was the deleveling but I guess the new ticket will help with that a lot.
