Crossbow of Imminent Doom would be my ranged of choice too.
Sadly in all these months of random AQ20 raiding just one dropped and i was not on the raid :(
So i had to settle for something like Mandokirs Sting which is not that bad of a choice IMHO.
to me it's up in the air between Imminent Doom and Mandokir's as mentioned but also Dragonbreath Hand Cannon. statistically they each have a lot of merit. Dragonbreath's graphic is probably the best pulling motivator ever
Dragonbreath Hand Cannon or Crossbow of Imminent Doom definitely.
Crossbow of Imminent Doom
0,35% dodge and crit
50hp
10ap
+1% hit
vs.
Dragonbreath Hand Cannon
0,70% dodge and crit
70hp
Personally, I'd take Crossbow of Imminent Doom, I just love +hit% and consider myself having enough avoidance, so no need for extra agility in DBC and the stamina difference is so small that it can be ignored. Now, what's sad is that I've only seen these babies drop a couple of times and never got either, so at the moment I'm using Toxin Injector. It has some ap and nice stamina, so not all that bad, but DBC and CoID are certainly better.
Toxin Injector is crap, don't let the good looks of it fool you! Mandokir's Sting / Xbow of Imminent Doom / Dragonbreath Hand Cannon are all better choices.
This is the best tanks, balanced stats and it even does good damage.
2nd would be the Bow from Bloodlord or Dragonbreath Handcannon.
