Newly 60 HR - pvp questions

I've been pvp'ing on my GWF (12.5k GS ).. and while its fun. Switching to a ranged class for a bit is a nice change of pace. I just recently hit 60 on my HR. My GS is around 8100. Got a few epics I picked up along the way. Now as for moves in pvp.. I've been using :

At Wills - Aim shot / Split strike

Daily - Disrupting shot / Forest Ghost

Encounters - Hindering strike / Binding shot / Marauders escape

Tactics - Lone wolf / Aspect of the Falcon

Enchants = Soul Forge on my Brutal chest and Plaguefire on Epic Bow.

^ So far this has been working quite well. I enjoy using Hindering strike, due to it having 3 charges and hitting harder then commanding shot or constricting strike. But I keep wondering if I should drop either binding strike for constricting or dropping hindering for constricting? This is where I'm looking for advice. The one reason I wouldn't really want to drop Binding is for the melee buff. I spec'ed a bit into Nature so I get 20% more healing along with 10% run speed for my party and I. ( I always try to keep it up while team mates are around )


Anyways, any constructive criticism is welcome. Thank you much!

    I find Constricting more annoying than Binding, the delay holds are more effective for me most of the time. Most of the times I melee'd Marauders/Fox Shift combo, then switch again then Marauders Escape to get back at range once more. Tho I'm quite new to HR too. :)

    Ill have to give it a shot. Either try dropping hindering, or binding. Thanks for the input.

    In PvP with HR, you are missing your biggest damage move that is Fox Shift. Always pick this and always be prepaded to change stances a lot, because no matter how good you are at kiting, you will always get to melee range and you need to be able to perform.

    Most usual setup for HR in PvP are:
    Split Shot/Aimed Shot (Aimed Strike is just amazing DoT)
    Hindering/Fox/Marauder's

    if you are good enough on melee, you can swap marauder's for Boar Charge.

    Yeah, I love going into Forest stealth and running around Aimed Striking everyone then watching the crit Dots ticking for over 1k a tic :)

    I was using constricting last night, instead of Binding ( in pvp ) ...and I like it .. A LOT. :)

    Thanks for the feedback. Got a few more pieces of gear too. Rocking 10.2k GS on my HR now.

    If forest meditation actually worked properly I'd replace Forest Ghost with it. The deflect + crowd control immunity can have some significant benefits to it.

    Forest meditation is for when you have the boons that are based off deflection. If you heal a bunch and hurt them a bunch, every time they hit you, it quickly stops incoming hits. In theory. :)

    Otherwise, yeah, I agree. Fox shift is perfect, ranged or melee. be prepared to deal with rushers, have a plan for them. Anything you can do to throw them off is a very useful thing.
