Found this from the Camelot Grab Bag:

Q: On The Camelot Herald web site it states that Quickness affects melee speed. There is no mention of what affects bow release time.

Please let me know what shortens the time it takes to release an arrow (I am not talking about reduced time due to level or amount of points in longbow). For example, the Dex/Qui spec buff from a cleric causes a shorter release time (makes the bow fire faster).

Does Quickness cause the bow to fire faster?

A: Yes.

I always thought that only Dex affected bows...

Dex affects bow DAMAGE, just like blades weapons are str based, bows and staffs are dex based.

I think draw time formula is

[ 1 - ( (Qui - 60) / 500 ) ] x WeaponSpeed x ToAbonus

so ye, Qui affects draw speed.
