Can he swing from a web?

Look out, he is a Crossbowman!

HOW IT WORKS

Shaken Foundation allows you to apply breakdown from a distance making this build effectively a ranged dps build with a reliable way to apply exposed.

Bloodsport, Dark potency and Iron maiden come highly recommended due to the power a penetrating hit adds to your hits.

Immortal spirit and advantage me will provide you with just enough healing to survive the ranged hits that get through, while rapid getaway helps you avoid the deadly enemy ground targeted attacks.

Sticky drone allows you to root your enemy target in place upon contact. Melee enemies will be unable to hit, walking behind ranged enemies after they become rooted will effectively place you outside of their line of sight rendering them unable to strike back.

Dirty tricks is a great crowd control ability, it can also be used to impair Psychic Renewal.

Pulling the strings will apply a buff reducing the chance your hits will glance by 10%, so be sure to use it early.
