for r/mes...a good combo is poison arrow and conjure phantasm...poison + hex does stack...while the enemy is suffering...knock them dead with penetrating arrow and dual shot (use ignite arrow during this time)...a great way to kick an oppenents @$$, you can thank me later

This makes it sound really bad in terms of costs, given that rangers use Expertise;

- with an 8 expertise the costs are 10 for Apply poison (1 per arrow) and 3 per arrow with Poison arrow, so only 30 instead of the 50 you'd pay without expertise.

- with a 13 expertise though the costs are 7 for the 10 poisoned arrows (.7 per arrow) and only 2 per Poison Arrow, so only 20 compared to the 50 without expertise.

I'd say 8 is a very low amount of expertise for a ranger, most will advise a 13 (for mostly 5 cost skills like Barrage, Poison Arrow, Hunter's Shot and Quickshot) or a 14 (for those using Tiger's Fury and/or spammable 10 cost skills). It is still more expensive than Apply Poison, but quite bearably so for the ability to use another preparation along with it.

thats what I do to, I'll kindle my arrows, duel shot hit then poison arrows. Usually by that time duel shot is recharged and I'll fire again. Its awsome.

Witmans Folly is right outside of Port Sledge, which is below Droknar's Forge. Travel North and explore that area and you'll find the boss. You will need to bring a signet of capture so when you kill him you can take "Poison Arrow".

Crappy skill, Oath shot is better for any ranger using any stance with 7 or more expertise.

It's good for a Fragility Ranger. If you had Apply Poison, Fragility would hit once when the poison aflicts them, and for it to hurt again you would have to actually stop shooting. With Poison Arrow, you can shoot ONE arrow at a time (or as many as you like), not only making Fragility hurt more, but also letting you use your other skills such as Penetrating Shot, interrupt skills, etc.

this skill is excellent for just harrassment of the monk.. start popping a few to different critical teammates.. and start attacking him.. it'll ruin his day. What this skill is really good is to find out who had degen from bleeding, phantasm or what ever is out there. .and pop them with the poision arrow... stacks the degen.

this next combo is so good, it gives max degen, causes a deep wound, poison, and does flat out damage. (Great for illusion mesmers)

Now the skills have to be used in this order:
Phantom Pain + Fragility + Poison Arrow + Conjure Phantasm.

Reason you gotta use phantom before fragility is because phantom has a 10 second delay before deep wound kicks in.
