Triple Digits in RA?

For about a week now i have been trying to up my rangers damage versus monks in RA. My goal has always been triple digits. I believe i have it now:

Expertise: 13
Marksmanship: 14
Wilderness: 14

equipment: Sundering Hornbow of Fortitude (20%)
armor: the explorers (for plus health, notice the reliance on sup runes)

Build:
Melandrus Arrows
Penetrating Attack (20% armor penetration)
Sundering Attack (exact same as above)
Distracting Shot
Lightning Reflexes
Whirling Defense
Troll Unguent
Res Sig

To a fellow ranger this build is prolly self explanatory. If a hornbow has 20% armor penetration built into it + the sundering string + the 20% penetration from sundering and penetrating attacks = a Whole lot of armor penetrated.

I routinely hit Monks / Mesmers / Eles / Necros in the 80 - 130 range (when they are enchanted)

Wammos are fun to, mending + heal sig + frenzy (done this b4 i swear!!) = 200+ range!!!

please post ideas and suggestions, i have every ranger skill now, and i am just trying to squeeze every last drop of damage out of her that i can.

Horn Bows only have 10% AP, and I'm pretty sure sundering/penetrating attack don't stack with other AP stuff..

That's where I read it from quite a long while ago...

Dunno, could be wrong, never tested it

well, i have tried with point blank shot and its twin, but that means i have to be practically on top of the target. also, i haven't noticed the same amount of damage as with penetrating/sundering.

anyone got a better build or ideas for damage please post.

According to the article on armor penetration, Penetrating Attack and the armor pen on horn bows do not stack. Sundering does, but for this combo I recommend an elemental string on a recurve - ebon string is nice. And there's little need to push the attribs that high. You can do triple digits (especially to ele's - who are ALWAYS enchanted) with only 12 or 13 in marks and 12 in wilderness.

For fun sometime check out the numbers you can put up vs enchanteds with Pen Attack, Mel's Arrows, and Mel's Assault with a 12 BM Elder or Dire pet. Mel's Assault does +17 (+ another 29 vs enchanted) with splash dmg.

Oh, and a Melandru's Arrow prepped Savage Shot is nifty.
