Like the last part says you deal less damage if you're close, Try to step back a bit to maximise damage.

Also, if you want your Pawn to buff you try to go back to the Encampment near Cassardis and buy a Utilitarian's Elixer I think it's called, This'll make your Pawn's secondary inclination Utilitarian so they'll focus on keeping you buffed with Fire/Ice/Lightning/Holy/Dark.

And yes, try to get a better Longbow if you can, try Caxton's shop in Gran Soren if he doesn't have a better one you're out of luck until Post-Game.
