Probably, Incendiary Arrows has been buffed not so long ago. But who knows, maybe it'll be buffed again, though being able to keep it up constantly would make it overpowering.
Marksman Wager + Spinal Shivers?
Ignite can be fun against tight groups and with a holy damage enchant it's a blast against minions.

Why no Barbed Arrows? Its a very poor prep compared to Apply Poison.

In a way, but with spinal cold-damage from multiple sources interrupts. And I find IA an annoying prep to keep up, you'll need additional skills to keep it up always. Then again, using IA one wouldn't split up attributes as much. Anyway, it was just about finding a use for Marksman Wager

16 wilderness + serpent's quickness.

Even if they make it not easily interruptible, Apply still owns it. That and if they buffed it too much, then Melandru's Arrows and Glass Arrows would suck even more than they do now.

Glass Arrows is for spiking, the bleeding is completely irrelevant. Melandrus Arrows is for the +xx damage and the bleeding just makes a little pressure on the side. Barbed needs to be dead even with Apply Poison. The ONLY use it has is that it can be used with Poison Arrow and, as Snipious said, if you have another R sing Apply already. Even then i'd prefer to use RtW/Kindle instead though.
As IA vs MW/SS goes... i meant even with MW hitting constantly you would still run out of energy if more than just you was hitting it with cold damage to cause interrupts. Especially at the rate some enemies spam skills.

Which is were Distracting Shot or Concussion Shot should come in. Sadly you will infact interrupt that Plague Touch 8 times in a row when really it makes no sodding difference if that enemy remains blind...
Targetted interrupts > C-Space interrupts all the time
