For example, with sneak I only have rank 1/5 of stealth and backstab. I supplement with a sneak bonus on my boots, a muffle spell and a ring/necklace with sneak/bow damage bonus. I never get detected unless I try to walk directly under someones nose. I also use a damage enchantment for bows on my gauntlets and helmet which combined with the other two is just as effective as the the deadly aim and the overdraw perks.

I also have zero perks for archery but with maxed out smithing and enchanting skills you can make up for that with an extremely deadly bow. I've yet to not drop anything with one well aimed sneak shot. However I will admit, I would like to have Eagle Eye, I still have a few perks left so I might take that one, it just sucks that I have to waste one on Overdraw to get it.

No, there are not enough. We kill dragons with one poisoned arrow with a sneak attack. That takes perks in archery, sneak, smithing, alchemy, destruction and enchanting. Yes, we do use some magic, but there just aren't enough perks to allow our destruction spells to be anywhere near as deadly. We did use some perks on our armor and restoration skills as well as enough perks in pickpocket to get Extra Pockets.
