Hey!
Does anyone have/know a build for assassin that would utilize bow weapon? Would be cool if you could share it. Thanks.

ranged sin builds?

There are many possible builds and the only skills that I'm guessing they all have in common is using Critical Eye and Way of the Master (for an increased critical chance), Critical Agility (for the +33% increased attack speed) and then Disrupting Accuracy (so your arrows automatically interrupt when they score a critical hit) and Keen Arrow (which does more damage when you land a critical hit).

Traditionally people use Barrage though there are certainly other options, especially now with Volley. You shouldn't have trouble finding specific builds if you search.

ok, I found a few! Played around a bit, and it all came down to this skill bar.
I can change the hunters shot to the Kurzick tripple shot skill. Barrage is also good, but somehow I don't like that it cancels all the preparations. I tried Disrupting Accuracy, it can also be exchanged by Rapid Fire. This indeed scores loads of interupts on mesmers and eles.
But what about spears? I tried to look for a spear build, but that one is deleted even from archives of PvX.
Also, any advice appreciated.

Some thoughts on that bar:
-IAS is capped at 33%. Rapid Fire adds absolutely nothing to that bar.
-Prepared Shot seems like a waste. You've got Crit Strikes, Crit Eye and possibly a zealous bow for energy. The damage itself isn't anything to get excited about.
-As a physical you should be aiming to get as much damage in as you can. Self heals (i.e, Shadow Refuge) don't belong, especially ones that eat up lots of attribute points.
-If you're not running Keen Arrow, you better have a really good reason.
-Savage Shot, while useful, is probably more expensive than it's worth. I wouldn't bother running any more shutdown skills alongside Disrupting Accuracy.
-If you want a multi-hit attack (which you should) but aren't prepared to sacrifice the preparation for it Incendiary Arrows will suit your needs. Triple Shot (as you say) and Dual Shot could be good options too, though they're 10e.
As for spear builds, I'd say you haven't found much because afaik there isn't much synergy between spears and critical damage. You could run Crit Eye + WotM + CA with a bunch of spear attacks and maybe some command buffs like "Find their Weakness!" but it's fundamentally going to be the same as a Paragon bar.
