Second, Lets go over why these are great choices.. Not including skills needed to get the Important ones.

•Improved Fire Arrow: Low cooldown and Decent damage.
•Strong Shot: Excellent Damage 3 second channel Made even stronger if used immediately after Paralying shot
•Improved Paralyzing Shot: I cannot stress enough how AMAZING the PDEF reduction of this skill is, not to mention its High Damage on top of it.
•Trailing Arrow: Great Damage on a low cooldown, also useful for Hitting Rouges out of stealth.. it is a MUST HAVE 1/5 for all AM ranger builds.
•Improved Double shot: Minor Burst damage on a very low cooldown.
•Fortune's Kiss: As a ranger dealing high damage is expected, the 10 bonus luck from 5/5 is an easy way to make you Lucky strike Very often.
•Void's Edge: While this skill isn't the best it is helpful in Interupting Ice mages Blizzard, Preists Heals, and other Anti-Mage rangers Strong shot which is Important.

•Natures Swiftness: What can i say? Fast attack combined with a Naturally High Damage and you will be a force to be reckoned with, The Movement speed is also important in Kiting those Pesky Knights and Rouges
•Quickheal: The Clutch of this Hybrid build, it is what makes Solo PvP and Solo Dungeons Possible an Amazing heal Even with a low magic attack as an Anti-Mage ranger
•Tidal Arrow: Knockback those Kights and Rouges for an even Easier time Kiting them.
•Barkskin: Although it has a 3 minute Cooldown, It is an important skill to this build because 6% of Max health everytime you take damage could very easily Add up to a lot of HP regain
•Improved Oak's Blessing: Another Amazing heal, 429HP PER SECOND, that just under the amount you get from a lvl 60 Healing Potion!


Now a Slight alteration to this build if you are looking for an even Better time Kiting people is to go 1/5 Improved Paralyzing Shot and Drop Void's Edge, and pick up 1/5 Magic arrow and 1/5 Ankle shot.





Stat point Distribution
As antimage the only Stat you need is Strength, Agility is a waste Due to the Naturally High Luck Rangers get out of Skills and Gear
