a good build for damage output, however yesterday i was dissapointed with dual shot, didnt seem to do much, but nontheless this build can kick the crap out of spellcasters (except monks of course, damn them!)

I use a similar build to this and i love it. I can kill most soft targets pretty fast. I think most a suprised to see the amount of damage each hit. Here it is:

Attributes:
Marksmanship: 12
Wilderness Survival: 11
Expertise: 11
Fire Magic: 8

Skills:
Dual Shot
Savage Shot
Quickshot
Conjure Flame
Kindle Arrows
Whirling Defense
Troll Ungent
Resurection Signet

Sometimes i will switch out somthing to put in Favouralbe winds for the extra damage but either will work.

It is fairly easy to play, dual shot is the primary as everyone says. Savage shot for a quick ineterupt when they try to heal. And the rest are pretty obvious. Try it out if you like its works great for me

These "re-vamps" u mentioned aren't that great. In fact this build is an "oldy+goldy". Credit for this build should not be put because there may have been a creater but SOOOO many ppl use this build its not even that unique anymore. In fact i use nearly the same build but with a "shocking" difference. (plz take the hint). Try this. main skills: Conjure Lightning Barrage and Chain Lightning with boulderbeards SHORT bow (the rest of the skills depend on what u wanna do). its incredible seeing as chain lightning acts as a more powerful barrage and targets 3 foes. I hope u realize that this build pretty similar to your "re-vamped" build but using barrage and lightning.
EDIT: disregard my pun above. its really corny.

I'd like to restate, that credit does go to me, not for being creator, but putting this build together with tips and strategies, in a comprehendable one post thread. Many variations of this build exist. The one posted here is my favorite.

If I were to change this build a bit now, I definitely would. Problem is, I haven't pvped in months. So me talking about the current metagame would be like me telling lies. And I don't want to do that.

The reason why Conjure Flame is a more popular choice than Conjure Lightning, is because Kindle Arrows meshes well with conjure flame. No Fire bow string required, unlike Conjure lightning which takes up the bow string.

Kindle Arrows
-Changes Bow Damage to Fire which puts Conjure Flame into effect.
-Adds a good amount of Damage
-Basis of the build. Chains all the stackings together.

Adding Barrage and Lightning totally ruins the build and it's foundation. If Kindle Arrows is used in the build, Conjure Lightning would become null since Kindle Arrows turns your bow damage into fire. Conjure lightning and Kindle Arrows clash(Fashion anyone )

I don't want to talk about Barrage. What kind of groups clump together?

And by the way Elvin Ranger,
I love corny puns. So I will not disregard the pun above

mkay dont disregard pun. I mustve missed the part about PvP. In pvp situations i would probably use ur build. I also dint mention using conjure lightning with kindle arrows. only lightning. Because lightning damage has armor penetration by itself and is combined with a short bow it is a fast acting barrage weapon. i pretty sure lightning damage has base AP of 25%. And im kool with u taking credit for POSTING the build and guide of how to use it. Creating it however was sumthing 1 person or many ppl have done a while ago. I used my lightning damage and barrage for farming. (usually ettins) until i found that trapping them was easier. As for my choise of lightning and not fire or water is because of the many low energy no exhaustion with high hitting power (hmm i would consider it to be a weapon of mass destruction seeing as this build is used for multiple targets lol). And when not fighting groups u could bring read the wind for example and duel shot and a move like lightning for single targets. 1 flaw to ur extremely "hot" build (hehe more corny puns) is that there is alot more battle preperation than mine. To do good damage (or even any at all) u would need to keep kindle arrows up at all time. Which is a pain in pvp if u get interupted. O and BTW, the comment about not pvping for about a month, i am suffering a loss of my comp to a virus. im using old comp that GW doesnt work on . so i cant play anything on GW. man im soo bored...so ill just continue to post stuff to keep in the GW groove.
EDIT: by the way, alot of balenced groups use wards, making them clump together.

Please, this build was created a long time ago. You taking credit for any part of the build or description would be like someone taking credit for a common IWAY build. Its common knowledge, so its not "your" build.

wasn't this build a premade templet a while ago..?

He wrote it 4 months ago and it's not good enough to deserve any bragging rights anyway, even for PvE. Give him a break, he took the time to formulate the idea clearly.

Hey i have a quick q--
Does Read the Wind Stack with the conjure line?
THx

Oops, I thought you said kindle arrows, my bad, yeah they stack.
