Serpents Bite GLICHED (MOD 7)

wdj40

Here is a quick 4min clip of my current build, I have yet to post any details of it anywhere on the net yet (I just posted this in the HR section of the forum)

I did this video to show what I mean by using Careful Attack effects your Aspect of the Serpent buffs. Just stare at the buff bar, you can see when I have Careful Attack up I pretty much never have 2 versions of melee AtoS. Thus during nearly every Ranged Rotation I actually fire off 2 Hunter`s Team Works... Its pretty hard to actually see it but when Careful Attack is up my ranged rotation goes like this...

Binding Shot > Hunters Teamwork (or Hindering Shot if charges ready) > Hindering Shot > Hunters Teamwork > Fox`s Cunning

Then switch to melee... as you can see even though all those powers fired off (I actually hold the Hunters Team Work Trigger during Encounter Animations as it is so quick to fire) I only have 1 stack of melee AtoS for a very very brief period, this is when Hindering Strike is used which does a lot of damage AoE strong roots.

When Careful Attack is down my rotation is just Binding Shot > Hindering Shot > Fox's Cunning > Hunters Team Work : Switch to melee which then gives me 2 stacks of AtoS melee : Hindering Strike > Fox's Shift > Oak Skin : Switch to ranged. People are always saying a good HR should not use At-Wills, complete nonsense as you just need to sneak them in for max AtoS benefit.

As I have mentioned before Fox`s Shift will remove 2 stacks of melee AtoS and replace with 1 Ranged, so its not worth using 1st in my rotation, but this ensures I always have 2 stacks of AtoS when switching to Ranged which is always good

Anyway clip to show Careful Attack and only to use it when you have max melee AtoS stacks, 3+ procs of Companions Gift and Master Trapper etc... and prey for a Crit http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/wdj40/video/14169729

Pro rotation man the only things I would maybe considering adding is holding your right trigger in for rapid/strike while doing you rotation except when you need to refresh careful attack. Bump you up a little bit more.

As your allys target and hit your careful attack target it will keep adding up to 2 stacks as well.

I forgot to mention but it is on my HR thread... I hold Rapid Strike during the melee rotation after I have fired off Hindering Strike... then all the way through Fox's Shift and Oak Skin I still hold the Rapid Strike trigger and let go it just before I switch stance back to Ranged

As someone else said... don't put much faith in the stats screen. Maybe not until the next update. They might figure you'd have to be nuts to not have your optimum equipment equiped so they stick with that stat
