So far I have been playing a Sunder Marauder build (was told it is starter friendly and not very gear dependant) and its okay but I have always loved being an archer in all types of games most notably Diablo 2 and the Bowazon.

If someone could let me know of a good guide or build out there i really would be grateful.

Cheers

tornado shot can be a ready good ranger build and lightning arrow aswell, check out the poe forums for thoses build, you will find plenty.
