User:Blastedt/fc bow mesmer

A Mesmer designed to destroy people with his bow because nobody would expect that! Then they die

Equipment

 * The Radiant insignia will help you to shoot off your load of bow power more quickly.
 * A Zealous Flatbow of Fortitude (with similar Sundering or Vampiric swaps).
 * A +5 energy single-handed weapon (sword or axe) with a +15 energy -1 energy regeneration focus item (to cast Power Spike if you gain Death Penalty).

Usage

 * Maintain Needling Shot spam whenever you're in a firefight with a weak dude who is near death!
 * Always step out of the immediate battle before using Comfot Animal so the pet does not get spoiled or jealous.
 * Keep Power Leaking to leak their power.
 * Never Needling Shot spam unless target is below 50%.
 * If you get a boss who is a mesmer or ranger you have a useful signet of capture to steal his skill! This could help during the fight

Counters

 * Shields Up
 * Touch Rangers
 * IWAY

Variants

 * It is possible to run this without Beast Mastery. Charm should be replaced with Flame Trap, and Comfort with Dust Trap. This will give yo ua little leeway in case a toucher comes too close.
