Default Conjure Barrage

Would it be better to run triple shot or evas on a conjure barrage build?

My build

Barrage
D shot
Savage Shot
Triple Shot/Evas
Standard of Honor
Litning Reflexes or Great Dwarf Arnir
Conjure Frost
Rez or something else

Any other feedback will be appreciated.

[Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support], I presume.

Try them both, pick the one you like. I'd run [[Triple Shot] with Conjure, and you have alot of high cost skills already.

Any single target damage build without [[Asuran Scan] fails horribly. Get it. And stick to triple shot

Builds like this just scream to be run in pairs with each ranger casting GDW on the other. Awesome skill that is if you can do it.

You might consider taking out barrage in favour of IA + RtW/Apply poison/ignite arrows in the optional slot. The reason for this is that unless your team is really trying or is in a few certain areas/running certain builds you won't usually get enough people in adjacent range for barrage to really work well. IA is nice for the large range and bigger damage, along with the prep you can get for it. RtW is practically a second conjure bonus, Apply Poison is even better. Ignite arrows is RtW damage + adjacent AoE on it, though the AoE is probably going to end up hurting you more then helping you in HM cause it scatters enemies, but if combined with a splinter weapon from a rit its a nice bonus to the insta-rape effect.

I also agree with the triple shot instead of ebon vanguard assassin skill as well.

This isnt a single target build. Its a barrage build. Triple SHot is just to kill off some of the stragglers.

That would work if i didnt have an icy bow for conjure barrage. And if i switch to a zelous wep, triple shot does horrible damage.

Thank you for all of ur guys feedback!

The thing that I am wondering is - what kind of team builds are you running that support Conjure?
If you are running around with heroes - then I'd seriously slap SY! on a Barrage build. Which means Conjure is out.
If on the other hand you are running around with more people who take care of SY! - then orders would benefit them also, yet if you are dealing ele damage, they are wasted on you. So I'd dump Conjure once again.

Depends on the people, or rather their characters, that you are running around with.

Better idea... drop barrage and grab volley and bring an elite that has more utility.
