User:Flash in the pan/melandru's sharpshooter

Equipment

 * Vampiric Flatbow
 * Vampiric Shortbow
 * Recurve Bow
 * Explorer's Armor Set

Usage

 * Use Favorable Winds and Read the Wind beforehand
 * Use Marauder's Shot on a chosen target, activating Bestial Fury immediately afterwards. Marauder's Shot's blackout effect triggers on hit, so it is important to use Bestial Fury right before it triggers. By doing this, and using Marauder's Shot again as soon as it recharges, this blackout practically extends Beastial Fury's recharge to around 12 seconds, which is quite acceptable.
 * Use Melandru's Shot, preferably on an enchanted target.
 * Use Marauder's Shot, Melandru’s Shot, and Bestial Fury as they recharge, while keeping the blackout duration in mind for greater efficiency.
 * Dispense Savage Shot for interrupts liberally. Continue your attack on your target and use tab key to cycle through other high priority targets to look for possible interrupts (or spam it if you’re lazy).
 * Refresh Read the Wind and Favorable Winds as appropriate.
 * The build does heavy damage, but with ranger armor, it is important to kite properly.

Variants

 * Frenzy, Flurry or Flail can be used for a more energy efficient IAS.
 * Distracting Shot when interrupting signets or other skills with fast recharge.
 * Distortion
 * Dodge/Zojun's Haste for capping Shrines in AB or just a generic speed boost.
 * Troll Unguent could be used for self healing in PvE or RA/TA/AB/CM.
 * Consider switching out Distracting Shot or Favorable Winds if using one of the above variations, or Resurrection Signet if you are in Alliance Battle.

Counters

 * Lower armor and slow activation time for healing.
 * Limited interruption.
 * No snaring or degen capabilities (see Build:R/Me Cripshot Ranger)
 * Blinding, Weakness, Empathy, and other anti spamming skills.
