    You have one strong root in the whole rotation. If you really want to be a DPS trapper you want more than that.

    Rain of Arrows / Rain of Swords is a bad choice for a HR Trapper. Rain of Swords is very GOOD for a Combat HR because the bleed effect allows Flurry to proc over and over. I can't see why anyone else would use it.

    Swap it out with Constricting Arrow / Steel Breeze would make a lot more sense, they work very well for Trapper.

    I see in your feats that you put 3 points into battlewise. I think those 3 points could be better spent in other feats. If you are claiming to be a high survivability build aggro should not be much of an impact for combat or trapper path.

    And to be honest i think its a useless feat for most classes and builds, waste of valuable points
