Ive been away from GW for a few months now, now im back and i wanted to make a build using 'Practiced Stance' and 'Choking Gas'

Sorry i dont know how to make the icons for the skill come up but this is what i have;

Practiced Stance
Choking Gas
Distracting Shot
Savage Shot
Triple Shot
Troll Unguent
-Blank-
I was thinking Flesh Of My Flesh for a rez.

Any Advice would be nice, or if you guys think i should throw the build out the window. heh

I would consider [[broad head arrow], but if you want to use [[choking gas], this would be a solid setup.

I'm guessing you want to keep choking gas up permanently? If so, perhaps just take out your two interupts and throw in an IAS.

but then again, 1/4 and 1/2 sec interupts are pretty sweet.

Use a shortbow

Reason I say that is whenever I hit a spellcaster with choking gas using another bow they need to step closer for their spells range

Shortbow seems just the right range.

Other than that choking gas and practiced stance work well together.

Here you guys go:

Go /w and take flurry and keep the interrupts.

IAS does help, more shots = more gas = more interupts

[skill]Practiced Stance[/skill][skill]Choking Gas[/skill][skill]Flurry[/skill]

Is an old combo, you only use the PS when Activating Choking Gas, the rest of the time you are under Flurry, though maybe [skill]Flail[/skill] could work.

Triple shot is not so good, you want shots with less than normal attack speed cast times, like [skill]Hunter's Shot[/skill] and [skill]Needling Shot[/skill]
the second being great for under 50% hp foes. There are other "1 sec cast time" skills but they are all 10e, even with high Exp spamming of any of those shots will tax your energy, expecially with the constant spamming of Flurry, which Is why I think Flail may be better. IF you take Flail you will need a cancel stace of some sort.

So drop Triple and Troll, add Hunter's and/or Needle as well as An IAS.

btw, much better options are out there for interupt build than [choking gas].

The Practiced Stance - Choking Gas - Flurry Combo on a Vampiric Shortbow can make for some pretty decent interrupt pressure. I ran it alot a while back and it was always fun to see the effect any time the enemy casters bunched up. Particularly since the aoe interrupt occurs even if the attack is blocked.

Edit-I agree with Theoden though..interrupt on demand has greater utility than Choking Gas

AidinSwiftarrow · Aug 23, 2008, 12:34 AM // 00:34

[Rapid Fire] anyone?

...hmm...I forget...can you not have two preps on at one time?

Amy Awien · Aug 23, 2008, 06:56 AM // 06:56

No, you can't apply two preps.

Flurry and Needling are excellent additions to the Choking Gas + Practiced Stance combo, the rest of your bar is basically free.

JDRyder · Aug 23, 2008, 07:39 AM // 07:39

imo BHA > Choking gas, but if he does not want to use it w/e build is fine imo but BHA is still better

zling · Aug 23, 2008, 07:43 AM // 07:43

[called shot] is awsome in [choking gas] bars. very fast arrows and unblockable, yes please!

Quaker · Aug 23, 2008, 04:20 PM // 16:20

Since you don't use any Rit skills, I'd change to Monk secondary and bring [rebirth]

Marverick · Aug 23, 2008, 05:31 PM // 17:31

Rebirth is a terrible skill.

Go /W and take [Flurry], as said. Also [Needling Shot] for spamming AoE interrupts on foes below 50%. Keep D-shot for interrupting non-spells, but Savage Shot can go for some PvE skills / etc.

Thanks everyone for all the advice
