No. You will get an error message saying you do not meet the condition. If you absolutely need it, you can try switching weapon to cast the skill and switch back. Bad idea but it works.

Perhaps using a bowgun and 1h sword.

Don't think you can use either as a sub weapon.

Then pretty much the only way to get that mix of skills is 1h sword as main and a arrow as sub. Which does work as a dex build. But your more a swordsman that can use archer skills at that point.

Tried this idea out today but only took it to level 30.
Your attack is about 60% of that you would have with a bow. Maybe a little bit higher than 60% but once you slap a bow back on, you will wonder what the point to this really was. You give up range that you had with a bow. Being full DEX will not give you any VIT or AGI so you are just a piece of meat on the chopping board when it comes to defense.
Using BD sword and light wolf garb will net you close to max asps and cspd, but the advantage resulted in nothing more than a slight faster mp gain than that of a bow user.
I trashed mine after 30, but if this is 'fun' in your eyes, 1h sword plus arrow does make a workable sword archer.

Astute skill is absolutely useless to an archer, I don't know why you even want it in the first place. If you're an archer and you want an aoe skill just level up until you unlock arrow rain, it's actually better than astute in my opinion. I don't remember exactly what the astute buff was (because I don't really like the sword class that much) but I'm assuming it's plus extra attack mp until next skill. Which, to be honest, is only useful if you're a swordsman. If you still want something similar to it though, I believe there is a skill in the survival skill tree that increases attack mp regen, which is the same as astute's buff.

3 there is no survival skill that increase atk mp regen there is a skill increase natural mp regen but its usless in battles Wrong, that skill does exist. I don't remember the exact words but the description said something about mp recovery in battle, however it seems to just increase normal atk mp recovery as far as I've noticed. |

Ok wow I got the wrong skill, sorry I saw my mistake just now when I looked through the sword skill tree, allow me to correct myself (Thanks vipr I should of paid more attention)
1.About the aoe thing, I got astute switched with a sword skill that charges through enemies and has a sort of aoe effect
2.About mp recovery, as said above by vipr I got that confused with trigger slash
3. I could of sworn I saw a survival skill that increases attack mp but I must be wrong
Anyways you still don't need the astute skill for bow, I can't remember if it was the Gear Bow or the Golem Bow but one of them gives crt rate +25%, and if that doesnt work just level up the crt stat when you're lvl 40, if you don't plan on being a bs or something like that.

I know Wht skill ur talking about but it dosent increase atk mp regen it just gives u a really low mp regen during battle that has nothing to do with if ur attacking or not |

And I'll shut up now this is off topic |
