periods work wonders for sentance structure.

Build wise... you might find prep shot more useful elite than poison arrow if you're keeping kindle arrows up. also more energy for spamming needling, dshot, and savage shot is gud.

If you take Yichi's suggestion, switch out Dual Shot for Concussion shot.

Also, your Marksmanship is too high for necessity. Put some in Expertise.

I like 14, but it's not set in stone.

are you in love with that elite? because frankly, id go glass arrows, and use poison tip signet, if you really MUST have poison. Also, consider forked arrow along with your dual shot for small kindle bursts.

There is not too much wrong with that build. I'd swap those points out of Marks and put them in Wilderness, as that's where your damage is coming from. Consider Triple Shot (for PvE obviously). Depending what you are doing with it you could probably get by with just DShot to interrupt.

Poison Arrow is a beautiful elite. Stick with it, I farmed cash for a full set of obsidian armour and chaos gloves with it, after the loot nerf!

Cause being able to farm makes a skill good?
I guess that makes Shield of Judgement and Mending super special awesome good.
Get Barbed Arrows if you are running Poison Arrow.
If not (condition stack isn't really needed in PvE), get BHA + Epidemic or Prep Shot + Kindle/RtW so you can power Dual Shot/Triple Shot.
Also Sunspear Rebirth Sig. Troll is not needed when you have Monks. Don't need to run a major rune.

Ditch the major, as most breakpoints worth anything are around 12-13, especially with expertise. You can use the extra health.

I kind of like the Kindle with PA, as it meshes well with an ele tossing Mark of Rodgort around. With a Triple Shot thrown in, you can have some real fun.

Can FFF to get Kurzick points. I don't really know of that Luxon farm.
Mark of Rodgort doesn't go on a Ranger bar.

I would add hunters shot to that build somewhere. The recent skill update made hunters a 1 sec attack, meaning that its alot easier to catch a target running now.

There. Never use anything other than Conjure from the Ele skill set on a ranger bar

Prep shot would be a better choice of elite.

If you want poison, signet or apply would be better.

I also favor Apply over Poison Arrow. It leaves you free to take something like Broad Head Arrow or Magebane Shot.
