cause its ranged AT. but dont hav rec on it such as blade or soldier with their recovery can easy kill u with 1st attack when u still need to make energy first. thats unfair.Example U can make only 1 charge to Soldier, when he can make full maintain riffle + ect.Blade just make ur stun+ trap with their movement skill and than can do melee combo or charge.what can do marksman,,?He can only select 1 skill cause he dont have time to make energy for something else((

    First off, Int reduces the cost of your powers, lessening the need for Rec.

    Secondly, Hunters Instinct returns energy and scales off Int, so with high Int, it only takes one or two crits to fill your energy bar.

    Thirdly, with Dex primary, you should be critting 30-50% of the time or more.

    My girlfriend's Marksman doesn't even use its energy builder often. Opening with a fully maintained Storm of Arrows fills the energy bar most of the way, and a steady stream of crits keeps it up.

    Also, the Marksman can move while charging most (all?) of their powers, an advantage that most others don't have.

    Actually, Hunter's Instinct doesn't scale on Int (at least it didn't last time I checked) but even so, it + Concentration + Int secondary = efficient.

    If you're having trouble with energy, refer to the gear section. Statting in some Rec on the side isn't a bad thing.

    What level is your Marksman, anyway?

    I have a Marksman AT, and I never use his EB... And I have energy all the time.

    Maybe in lower levels, you can find some problems with energy management, but in lvl40, with proper gear and stats, you shall never have that problem.

    Hunter's Instinct is... You guessed it, EGO based!

    Yeah, Archery's energy usage isn't too high for the real good leading attacks (Torrent of Arrows and even just old Straight Shot, for example).

    Derp. Yeah. So that would make dropping Ego even WORSE for any potential energy issues.

    Not sure if Serious...

    Quarry (which apparently is one of the best passives) scales with Intelligence Which scale the Amount of EGO and INT you get back from the Passive per stack! Which EGO scale your Hunter's Instinct energy return!

    Why the heck do you want to remove it?
    If you have Energy Issues, then wait until lvl 40 and then get Heroic Gear which Provide Cost Discount!

    Marksman Build is fine as it is! You just don't know how to play it right!

    Remove Int, and you gimp Quarry, which is the cornerstone of the set.

    Really, there's no need for a change. Slot level 40 purple Rec/Int, Rec/Dex and Rec/Ego secondaries and talent Dex/Int, Dex/Ego, Dex/Rec, Int/Ego, Int/Rec, Ego/Rec and you have 10 (base) + 15 (talents) + 3x20 (gear) = 85 Rec.

    That plus Hunter's Instinct and Concentration should give you plenty of energy to work with.

    Did you know you can use gear that doesn't have your super stats on it? If you really want more energy, get a single piece of gear with recovery on it. Problem solved, and no changes to the game that would undoubtably annoy some people were needed.
