They feel very underpowered. And to put it out there, I don’t find the Barb underpowered, and I do find Necro skells need something… just for perspective of my opinion. Bow skills just don’t feel like they do very much, and I’m constantly out of Energy. Just feels soft.

Sounds like you neglected taking energy giving skills or making use of them.
I thought kind of the same until I got some gear that upped my bow skills I was using and I absolutely melted mobs

Ive been using bow the whole time and combined with poison it has been doing the job quite well. Being that there is more to it than a simple generalization, maybe you can be more specific.
Im actually using something similar to what Wudijo used to solo Ashava only im not using rapid fire, im using the other single shot one that pierces.
I was trying to make a build that was completely just bow based. I saw the poison traps, and I also saw some melee abilities that would give Energy back, but I did avoid them for the sake of flavor.
So, to be more specific:
Lvl 15
5 Heartseeker
5 Barrage
Caltrops
No unique items
I’ve taken other things as well (Bow exclusive attacks, and only abilities like Caltops that made sense to the theme) and none of them really feel good.
To be fair to my experience though… I’ve played all the other classes (least Sorc) and they all felt like I had the ability to make what I wanted. I’ve also tried the other abilities for the Rogue and I destroy everything. Switch back to a Bow exclusive build (regardless of what abilities I try to mix together and synergies) and it kind of sucks.
Love the Rogue for me. Pierce and multi shot, trap, dash and darkness imbue. Only 1 legendary boots. Played with pc controller, great gameplay. Cannot wait to build my own on release
