Melandru's Kindle
A build for JQ that focuses on stopping carriers and stopping cappers.

Build
[build prof=r/any Expertise=11+1 Marksmanship=10+1+1 WildernessSurvival=10][Melandru's Shot][Needling Shot][Distracting Shot][Savage Shot][Poison Tip Signet][Kindle Arrows][Lightning Reflexes][Natural Stride][/build]

Usage

 * Go up top of one of the jade plateaus.
 * Find a target (preferably a carrier).
 * Make sure Kindle Arrows and Poison Tip are up.
 * Hit the target with Melandru's Shot, making sure they are moving.
 * Hit Lightning Reflexes and auto-attack the target. Use Savage Shot if you *really* need the extra damage.
 * Once the target is at half health, start jamming Needling Shot. The combination of Poison, Bleeding, and the 40 damage per shot of Needling should topple the target fairly fast.

Variants

 * Crippling Shot instead of Melandru's Shot. Does less degen, but fast recharge and will always cripple (which is arguably more important than the bleeding and extra damage)
 * Dash instead of Natural Stride
 * Troll Unguent instead of Poison Tip Signet, if you want the ability to heal yourself. Not recommended if you are using CripShot, since that's the loss of 14hp per second compared to the base build.

Counters

 * Empathy
 * People doing damage to you, due to lack of self-heals
 * Good healers healing the carrier.
