Bow Solo Build - ESO Guide

• Focused Aim - a ranged spammable with massive range that applies Sundered status effect
• Deep Fissure - deals a lot of damage per cast, provides around 9,000 penetration by debuffing enemies with both Major and Minor Breach and provides 5% Critical Damage through the Advanced Species passive
• Merciless Resolve - an ability that will cause your Light Attacks to generate stacks. You can spend 5 stacks to fire a powerful arrow that also heals you if you're in Melee range. It also grants you Major Savagery and Prophecy
• Killer's Blade - an execute you should switch to when your enemy is below 30% Max Health
• Bird of Prey - passively provides Minor Berserk which increases your damage done by 5%. It also provides 5% Critical Damage through the Advanced Species passive and it can be used for a movement speed burst and snare removal
• Soul Harvest - a cheap ultimate that increases target's damage taken from you by 20%. This is the ultimate you should use in Single Target fights. Having it slotted will also cause you to regain 10 Ultimate whenever you deal a final blow against an enemy
• Hurricane - a skill that deals a lot of damage per cast and grants you Major Resolve buff increasing your armor by 5948
• Poison Injection - a strong DoT which deals increased damage against low health enemies
• Bull Netch - provides a lot of Stamina sustain, a 5% damage boost, constantly purges debuffs and provides 5% Critical Damage through the Advanced Species passive
• Endless Hail - a ground DoT which will apply your Weapon Damage enchantment
• Barbed Trap - a DoT that will also apply Hemorrhage status effect at the start and grant you Minor Force buff, increasing your Critical Damage by 10%
• Shooting Star - an ultimate that deals damage in an AoE, leaves a ground DoT and grants you Ultimate for each enemy hit with the initial blast, up to 6 enemies. Use it in AoE fights or when you start fights with high amount of Ultimate stored up

Poison Injection is the first skill that has to go when you need to slot something situational, unless the situational skill specifically says that it's replacing something else. If it has to be a frontbarred skill then the first skill that has to go is Killer's Blade

• Critical Surge - a very strong self heal. It can also be used as your main source of healing before you obtain the Ring of the Pale Order Mythic
• Resolving Vigor - use it for more difficult fights where the pressure is constant and thus you need the Minor Resolve. It can also be used in fights with invulnerability phases where you can't heal with Ring of the Pale Order , Reaving Blows or Critical Surge
• Soul Burst ( Bleed , Lingering Torment , Courage ) - AoE DoT which grants you Minor Courage, increasing your Weapon and Spell Damage by 215. Use it in fights where you need more AoE damage.
• Silver Leash - a chain ability that you can slot in trash packs to stack enemies and get through them faster
• Ulfsild's Contingency ( Bleed , Gladiator's Tenacity , Force ) - a replacement for Barbed Trap in fights where you need more damage mitigation. It's a delayed AoE damage that also grants you 8% damage reduction for 8 seconds and Minor Force for 22 seconds, which increases your Critical Damage by 10%. You should recast it every 8 seconds when under pressure and every 22 seconds otherwise
• Revealing Flare - slot it for more difficult fights where you need more damage mitigation. It's a skill that passively grants Major Protection, reducing your damage taken by 10%. It will also trigger the Magicka Aid passive, which increases Magicka Recovery by 10%
• Acid Spray - a decent AoE DoT for when you need more AoE damage
• Precognition - an ultimate that breaks you out of some otherwise unavoidable stuns, you'll need it to get around some mechanics which are otherwise impossible or very difficult to solo, like for example Inferno's Hold in Zaan the Scalecaller fight
