Bow damage per second formula
(1/(1.45+(1/(draw speed*1.3, quick shot only)))*((bow damage including smithing + arrow damage)*(perk multiplier)*(1 + (skill/200)*(1 + fortify archery enchantments total percentage)+ bow enchantment damage)
Crossbow damage per second formula
(1/(2.7*0.7, quick shot only)*((bow damage including smithing and arrow damage)*(perk multiplier)*(1+(skill/200)*(1+ fortify archery enchantments percentage)+ bow enchantment damage)
I am unsure how quickshot affects Crossbow speed as Nikolaj Poulsen found out that crossbows are all draw speed, so proportionally it would have a much greater effect than on normal bows which have nock and rest time. I have included values with and without quickshot.
Notes
- The long, falmer, imperial and Nightingale bows don’t benefit from smithing perks
- The supple ancient nord bow can’t be tempered
- The falmer supple bow may or may not be available in game, but if it is then it can’t be tempered
- All enchanted bow values include their enchantment damage
- To find values for damage while wearing enchanted equipment- (listed value)*(1+(enchantment percentage/100)). I did not include them in my table as they would not change the order of the bows, just the damage magnitude

I play as an archer or use archery in the majority of my characters, and I wanted to know the best bow in terms of damage per second. There are several places where you can find this out, but none that I saw gave a breakdown of archery in relation to skill, smithing and enchanting at various levels, and since I was interested here it is. I hope it is helpful.
Thanks and credit to Nikolaj Poulsen for correcting errors and providing new data on attack speeds.
Bow damage per second formula
(1/(1.45+(1/(draw speed*1.3, quick shot only)))*((bow damage including smithing + arrow damage)*(perk multiplier)*(1 + (skill/200)*(1 + fortify archery enchantments total percentage)+ bow enchantment damage)
Crossbow damage per second formula
(1/(2.7*0.7, quick shot only)*((bow damage including smithing and arrow damage)*(perk multiplier)*(1+(skill/200)*(1+ fortify archery enchantments percentage)+ bow enchantment damage)
I am unsure how quickshot affects Crossbow speed as Nikolaj Poulsen found out that crossbows are all draw speed, so proportionally it would have a much greater effect than on normal bows which have nock and rest time. I have included values with and without quickshot.
