Nice guide and gameplay I enjoyed watching it.

Would be interested @ZYBAK to hear if you've tried your current build with a Longbow, I think I read you prefer how the damage procs with the Shortbow. You hit hard anyway, but would be interesting to see how much a difference a Longbow would make to your output.

I like watching your Fighter videos, makes me really hope they sort the TTK out soon so I can roll my Fighter out!

Shortbow has some mechanical advantages for weaving damage in between abilities and that makes it better for small scale in my opinion. However the extra range on longbow is too good in large scale where it's a poke-fest.

Both are good in my opinion.

Ye they are good in different situations, I enjoy playing around with them both to be honest, the bleed on the Shortbow is excellent.

Just would be interested to see if you're losing much damage output (in numbers) by using a Shortbow or if it's not that noticeable/made up with the ability to weave damage more easily.
