    Unfortunately, Gatling Gun can't refresh Armor Piercing on tap anymore (once it's already up), so if you want a more reliable AP debuff source for AR that's also long-range then you'll have to take something like Straight Shot w/ adv in Archery. Although Gatling is okay for long-ranged AoE, you'll still want AR for higher single-target dmg, and you prob want the Furious refresh adv on Gatling if using AR's Uncompromising adv (Rocket's nerf to being a longer cd will lower Furious uptime by itself), and then you can just tap Gatling to refresh Furious. You could opt just take R3 on AR too, if you want a more straightforward dmg boost for it (albeit w/ lower optimal dps from it).

    Preemptive Strike in Avenger spec also won't affect anything, since there's no Blast power here (you could still keep Avenger spec, or switch to Guardian w/ Find the Mark). I may also pass on '+%Offense from gear' spec options if you aren't using gear w/ a large bonus to Offense, but it's up to you. Also, Holdout Shot will be limited to 50ft, so if you wanted Stim Pack at any range then you could get Mini Mines w/ it instead, since the heal adv works w/ just activating the power.
