I'm sorry to burst your bubble but you don't really have any customization to do on your character. Stat points go into dex to maximize dps and you wear the best gear you can, again to maximize dps, as that is the role you play when in parties. You'll want to level a few other classes to get some cross class abilities but when you become a Bard, choices will get narrowed down quite a bit. Sadly, there isn't all that much to differentiate one Archer from another. That being said, the class is a whole lot of fun to play.
