 * 11 Marksmanship (10+1)
 * 11 Wilderness Survival (10+1)

 * Poisonous Longbow of Shelter
 * Poisonous Spear of Fortitude + Shield of Fortitude (+10 vs Slashing, Piercing or Blunt, keep in inventory)

Usage

 * Interrupt damage spells, bad hexes, healing spells and things like that depending on the situation
 * Interruption sequence should optimally be magebane>dshot>magebane
 * Rez control (don't fall for fakes)
 * Spread poison after interrupting important skills
 * Use Natural Stride to get closer to a target you plan to interrupt, as a block stance or an as anti-interrupt for your apply poison (doesn't always work so faking is to be considered when needed)
 * Use Lightning Reflexes as a block stance or a quick poison spread
 * Keep Apply Poison up as much as possible
 * Cripple whatever could be annoyed by being crippled.
 * Make wise use of Magebane's unblockable property (it goes through Shield Bash)
