Image:Red thumbs down.png This build is not favored by the GuildWiki community.

The general consensus among users of GuildWiki is that this build is not viable.

This build was voted unfavored for the following reasons:

  • No defense and not enough offense
  • Fragility is easily removed
  • Requires highly favorable conditions

This build uses a low level in Wilderness Survival to deal large amounts of armor-ignoring damage through Fragility with Incendiary Arrows. Since burning only lasts 1 second with Wilderness Survival at 0, Fragility triggers twice in 1 second. Combined with degen from burning and damage your arrows do, this adds up to a large amount of damage very quickly.

[edit] Equipment

You'll want the bow with the shortest refire rate, which would be a Shortbow.

[edit] Usage

  • Look around for a target. Any caster is good, for the sheer amount of interrupts you'll get on them.
  • Use Fragility on the target.
  • Cast Incendiary Arrows, and then use Serpent's Quickness while Incendiary Arrows is casting.
  • Immediately, hit Tiger's Fury, and spam Penetrating Attack, Marauder's Shot and Focused Shot
  • Wait until Incendiary Arrows recharges, and then rinse and repeat.

[edit] Variations

  • The only necessary skills are Fragility and Incendiary Arrows. Feel free to use any attack skills you like.
  • Needling Shot may also be very useful for spamming arrows.
  • It is often wise to bring a cover hex for fragility, such as Conjure Phantasm.
