Marksmanship Variant
Marksmanship can replace Skirmishing for high burst damage, but quickly falls off. You will note that despite using a longbow this build does not use
, this is because we only use longbow to start the fight and quickly swap to our other set. Longbow has great burst but absolutely atrocious sustained damage.
