Are, there many good long bows in the game, and are they easy to find?

halberd and a druid? naw..
If your going the dex. ranged route I mentioned then rapier would be preferable allowing you to get a good attack bonus based on your dex. via the feat weapon finesse (sorry about not mentioning it b4). Additionally once you get the forged rapier in the game do NOT upgrade it latter - upgrading it actually makes it less effective for its Daze ability. At the end of the 1st chapter there is an excellent bow - depending on what choices you make (easy to find). At around character level 16 an outstanding bow becomes a variable treasure item in chests. |

What weapons get the bonus from weapon finesse? I only thought it was small weapons, and IIRC the Rapier is medium. What's the full list? I'm considering it for a feat, since I've got 20 Dex and only about 14 Strength.

Finnessable weapons: dagger, handaxe, kama, kukri, light crossbow, light hammer, mace, rapier, shuriken, sickle, sling, throwing axe, and unarmed strike.
These are taken from the manual, but manuals aren't exactly renowned for being accurate so I can't guarantee the list is absolutely correct. Check the in-game description for a more accurate list. Rapiers, I know, are usable with WF. Please note that WF uses your dexterity modifier only for the Attack Bonus, not the extra damage which will still be based on your strength.
