I think the answer to that question depends on a few different things. Do you have any equipment stored away for an Amazon, or are you starting from scratch? If starting from scratch I'd suggest a Javazon as they are less equipment dependent than a Bowazon. Personally I like Javazon's more, since I have trouble finding those end game bows and therefore have issues getting through Hell.

Are you playing on Bnet or SP? If on SP then you may need to have a variety of skills to deal with the Immunities you will encounter. On Bnet you will have partners that can do this for you, so you can specialize more.

Am playing on B.net and planning to make a PvP bow zon
Am planning to use 120/45ias, Fort, Faith and dont know about the rest of the gear stat and skill.
Should i put enough points into dex for gear ?? or alot more so i do more dmg

For pvp bowazons

High vita > High Dex

I don't play PvP but from what Omikron8 said I'd assume just enough Dex for your gear.

Well to be honest i've seen both sides of the argument and neither really stands out. In 1.10/1.11 dueling a zon can die in seconds to a few elemental spells/hammers/bone spirits/bone spears. Having an extra 1000 life from pumping vitality will not make a huge difference in this survivability. Of course having more time to survive gives you more time for your physical damage + open wounds do to their job.

Oh ok so i should put up Vit until i have around 1k life and the rest into dex.
What about skill points should i max Guided arrow and from there i have no clue
