Summary

General PvE build for roaming and farming mobs. Not too useful in dungeons due to Spirits Unbound trait ironically. Moving from AoE to AoE isnt going to keep them alive. Plus longbow in dungeons doesnt help party in most situation.

Weapon and Skill Details

Spirits being able to move with you is great for open world especially moving from mob to mob. Storm spirit replaces our needed Signet of the Hunt and goes with Warhorn's Call of the Wild.

 

Axe weapon swap is when mobs get too close, Frost and Storm active adds extra damage and CC while adding Power stacks with Bloodlust sigil.
