im starting to think that if i use the mavina set - using the traiditonal skill/stats is not beneficial. and im not sure i wanna try the whole freezing arrow build.
That set i would only consider for Freezing Arrow build. Penetrate is very effective with this skill. It will explode a line of cows like a laser hit them. For this build only add enough str and dex to wear the set, rest into vita (if you want). Freezing arrow's cold damage always hits so you don't necessarily need good attack rating. AR will only impact if your arrow hits (physical part).

can i still make a decent multi/guided bowa without the crazy end game runewords?
for example:
Valk helm, WF, cats eye or atmas, ravenfrost/bk or manald, gore riders, loh, string/nos coil/ razortail or something along those lines
Yes this will work. You don't have to use those belts though. A rare one with FHR, +str, resists, etc is also nice.
Valk helm is also not nessasary. Could use a rare helm with resists.
I'd recommend atmas amulet for hell certainly.
For body armor you can just wear Smoke. You're going to need the resists badly. Or find some resist charms.
Strafe is my skill of choice and my recommendations are based on that.
Do not neglect your merc. You need him/her. Give them the best gear you can. Your protection is secondary (unless HC).
