One of the best, if not the best, of the Ranger's Power-based options (in my personal opinion). High damage output and good burst, still a glass cannon but with a good selection of active defenses (Signet of Stone, Lightning Reflexes, Counterattack). Lacks in utility compared to other classes when roaming in a group, but it's very easy to play when solo and has no trouble flipping camps and knocking cannons off walls by itself.
Somewhat lower skill cap and there are other classes that can perform its role better, but a viable choice for multiple uses. Also easy to set up gear, for what it's worth; standard PvE equipment will work nearly as well, so long as the player knows how to position safely.
