I believe there is a bug with the Archery fighting style - it adds a +2 damage bonus, which is incorrect, along with the +2 to hit bonus, which is correct. I have a level 10 character with a longbow +1 and Dexterity at 18 (so a +4 bonus). The to hit bonus is correctly calculated at +11 (4 from Dexterity, 4 from Proficiency, 1 from longbow and 2 from Archery), but the damage appears at 1d8+7, which doesn’t make sense, it should be 1d8+5 (4 from Dexterity, 1 from longbow). A link to the character follows below:

On the equipment section of your character is a magical item called bracers of archery - this is where the extra +2 damage is from. 😊
