@Akhilleus: i guess ur right, but thats kinda off-topic, and btw, im stuck between flail and frenzy...

1)My bad, i read it twice and my brain still see hornbow.
2)I was answering Thom's question regarding why YOU said IAS was there, and going into deatail about why *I* think ias is there. IAS is a wasted spot in your build unless you spread a little poison....not my opinion The fact is to get the most effective use out of your own build (and its a decent build for it) thats what you'll want to do. Apply, burnintate someone, hit ias, hit a few more targets, camp a caster for a few secs for interrupt, spam a few more, burnintate again... all the while watching the little overhead insignias for some juicy interrupt on your primary target The fact is you can poison others for extra pressure *while* camping your primary target, try it .

Well, yes... but thats only when you look at it in terms of a number... whats really important is your ability to enhance the party's ability to eliminate it's opponent. A ranger putting degen on one target works ok, in pve, one mending touch will ruin your entire plan buddy ;P A ranger putting degen on 5 targets works anywhere. The dps may not seem intense, but the pressure gets the job done. Sadly with the prevalence of [wiki]Mending Touch[/wiki] and [wiki]Restore Condition[/wiki] even the Cripshot poison cover is becoming obsolete.
