The Point
To nuke is fun, to blow things up and set them on fire a very wonderful thing, but no one ever expects it from Rangers. This build came from my making a R/E with the same concept *still working on energy management issues, checking into glyphs* and this was a easy way to overcome them.
But why not just normally nuke one may ask? Well, normally with nuking, it's just you and the enemy and they tend to get kind of angry when you want to blow them up and set them on fire. This build gives you a tank to do some amounts of damage through it's own attack power, as well as with it's physical attacks now fire attacks, you continuously cause fire damage to your enemy, which ends up causing burning. And you get a meat shield. Along with a firey longbow, you can stand back and watch the evil commence.
Some thoughts
Maybe change Distracting Shot for Distracting Lunge. I just dislike the time it takes the AI to think about having my pet perform the attack. But it deals more damage.
Hex removals will only slow you down a bit. If you feel thats an issue, take out distracting for flare, or some easy low energy skill to spam to hurt them while waiting for recharge to finish.
The shouts give you time to wait for energy to regen before battle. Rushing in too fast will kill your energy, time your attacks. You arent going for spike damage, just consistent Degen.
