As the guy above me mentioned, Triple Shot is a kurzick/luxon skill. The OP has Factions otherwise he wouldn't have Needling Shot in his build.

Either way though Triple Shot won't work since it's a PvE only skill and the OP said he's using this for AB.

Cutting it down to 3 attributes will boost your damage output, though you lose Natural Stride and Troll Unguent.
I wouldn't say you loose those skills, but you GAIN 2 slots.

BTW: my usual Glass Arrows build:
[card]Triple Shot[/card][card]Savage Shot[/card][card]Needling Shot[/card][card]Glass Arrows[/card][card]Lightning Reflexes[/card] - 2 more nice PvE skills (Battle standard of Honor/Courage; "I am the strongest!"/"Dodge this!") - some res

All true, [skill]Mark of Rodgort[/skill] and [skill]Ignite Arrows[/skill] go together like PB and J. I'd personally think Prepared shot would be superior to Quickshot as the elite with those however. There's another way to get a similar effect and yet spread damage more (but you'll lose conjure) and that's [skill]Burning Arrow[/skill][skill]Apply Poison[/skill][skill]Epidemic[/skill] which is more cost effective in my opinion (on attributes spread). If you really need bleeding, just use screaming shot. For big damage you can't go wrong with [skill]Keen Arrow[/skill] as an aside fyi.

Edit: there *are* often earth eles in AB I've noticed, and the conjure/mark wont work for burning if they run stone striker, but BA+AP+epidemic does.

The burning + poison+ epidemic seems nice also.

The Epidemic builds are usually better for more long lasting conditions and the burning just lasts 4 or 5 seconds, but with 'just' bleeding and poison on everyone there's a lot of degen. Works well with broadhead arrow also
Fragility and incendiary arrows is kind of funny also... not that great, but really funny

I tried the build out and had some trouble finding grouped targets, npcs were no problem but I couldnt get someone to stand still long enough to get my full line out. A crip will do some good .

Also theres [skill]fevered dreams[/skill] That might work better.

If this is AB, I find there is a significant number of blockers - Rangers, Sin, and Warriors have their fair share of the blocking ability.

On the other hand, Eles, Dervs, Monks are more Enchant intensive.

Either way, both is a good choice.

I wouldn't use Melandrus although you want it to stay as well as Mark of Rodgort use burning arrow.

If you want to keep the whole Spike thing in AB, just go Prep Shot/Glass Arrows, Dual, Savage, Conjure with Kindle/RtW.
Or you can just go R/Mo Crip Shot with Purge and Mend Touch.
