Usage

This build is based around the weapon swaps and the Quick Draw trait in the Skirmishing specialization, which lets you use the Longbow 5: Barrage on every weapon swap.

Opener

1. Elite: One Wolf Pack
2. Longbow 2: Rapid Fire, it's multi-hit attack will generate a lot of Might stacks
3. Weapons Swap, Sigil of Superior Sigil of Battle will generate 5 Might stacks
4. Longbow 5: Barrage right after the weapons swap, so the Quick Draw trait will be applied to it to lower its cooldown. It's a multi-hit attack, so it will also generate a lot of Might stacks
5. Longbow 2: Rapid Fire, when it comes off cooldown, and do autoattacks, until the new weapons swap is ready

Loop

1. Weapons Swap, as soon as it's available
2. Longbow 5: Barrage with the Quick Draw trait active
3. Longbow 2: Rapid Fire, when it comes off cooldown, and do autoattacks, until the new weapons swap is ready
