BFO sort of boosts magic but the effect is super minimal since it only affects bolts/int magic.
Adv magic has no scaling from damage enchants/BFO
Adv magic has little/no benefit from Vivace
Raids primarily use BFO because physical damage dominates the game since vivace does little to nothing for physical damage skillsets.
Example Calculation
Damage with Weapon: 400-600
Magic Attack: 600
Skill to Use: Firebolt
SpellCoeff: 0.35-0.5
DamageCoeff: 0.2-0.4
Overture: 40%
EnchantedDamg(From Overture): 160-240
Firebolt Base Damage(Dan3): 66-126
Damage from MA: 210-300
Damage from EnchDamg: 32-96
Base+MA = 276-426
Base+MA+Ench = 308-522
Damage Difference with BFO
Min Diff = 308/276 = 1.116
Max Diff = 522/426 = 1.225
But then again Firebolt is the best damage scaling magic so every other magic will have worse scaling than this and its also dependent on your damage for wacking with your staff/wand which is STR
Even if I'm nice and assume a low atk of about 600-800
Most top archers I know should have over 1000 in min/max
40% overture
R7 Bow/
840-1120 Base Atk
3.24x Critical Multiplier
Not assuming dual Magnum Damage 3 Accessories Dragon Bone Chip has not been factored into this +20% attack damage, this will stack multiplicatively with overture giving you a min/max multiplier of 1.68x your base damage
Erg50 Bow/Crossbow was not factored in this, but doubled aimspeed with reduced cd on miss will increase the dps easily over firebolt
Dan3 Magnum 560%
4704-6272 non crit
15240-20321 crit
Magnum Damage 20 Gloves + 200%
= 760%
6384-8512 non crit
20684-27578 crit
Bohemian Magnum Boost(1.15x)
= 874%
7341-9789 non crit
23786-31715 crit
87% Magnum combo card(6th Magnum)
= 1634.38%
13728-18305 non crit
44478-59308 crit
The damage is much higher on an actual dedicated elf archer who shoots magnums every 0.5 seconds, I was just being nice and put a lower base min/max damage
Here is the damage you would do with the most OP reforge/set effect setup with 87% combo card, 800MA, 450-600 atk with 43% overture.
R7 wand for the non ego wand

Everything here is assuming no reductions.
Dont forget that physical damage has many def/prot reducing skills such as bone dragon summon, uppercut, scooter imp, snowman, dance of death,
Bows/crossbows have a piercing of 1~5
Regular Crossbows 1
Bhafel Hunter 1 + 1
Divine Crossbow 2 + (1~3) Novel Enchant
Celtic Royal Crossbow 3 + 1
Piercing from 1~5 ignores 6 def and 5 prot per level
Piercing 1 = 6 def 5 prot ignore
Piercing 5 = 40 def 25 prot ignore
Hydra's reductions are nothing compared to what physical classes can use.
If I had the opportunity to change race, I would switch to elf and go do archery instead of magic
