Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

I have not seen any information around, so thought I will ask here.

I was thinking of adding Duelist 10 to Archer build for a few reasons:

intelligence to AC - intelligence is a nice stat since many archers have skill utility and will most likely be able to push the int. (secondary stat) to 20. (Where both int and dex used for armor class)
Deflect arrows - epic deflection - seems really nice for archers since fight at distance anyway
Precise Strike - add more damage to bow attacks
Improved reaction - innate haste ability

However, I wanted to know whether precise strike actually works with bows. (Since it works with piercing two-handed weapons)
What about using flourish with ranged weapon?

Synergy with assassin's death attack -> Arcane archer

So what I am missing that I do not see Archer specific builds on nwn2db with duelist class?

Thanks.

Weeell, firstly, all the intelligence based armor turns off when you are holding ranged weapon. Precise strike (and flourish too) doesn't work as well, so sadly this idea won't work as expected.

Weeell, that explains why I have never seen a duelist archer...ever.

Deflect Arrows also will not work without the Armed Deflection feat (since bows are considered two-handed weapons)
