Nightblade Werewolf Ranged build (for VR1 returning fresh to game since patch)?

My girlfriend and I recently resubbed after several yonks (we played most of the betas and then a month into the full version) and we're now faced with new skills and reset attribute points, which means needing new builds. She plays a DK tank, but my build doesn't need to complement hers too strongly.

But, I'm faced with an issue. When we unsubbed, both werewolves and nightblades were pitiful and under-powered, pre-patch. I've done Googling and have no idea where to begin, so I pose this question:

What build would work best for me?

My play style is that I hate potions and love AoE. Wereskills don't matter too much to me (it was more of a novelty). I suck at dodge rolling and I'm not that great at kiting, and I prefer to stick with bow due to really liking ranged.

I also enjoy crafting, which limits my options even further.

Right now I'm VR1, if that helps, and I primarily PVE but wouldn't mind a bit of punch for PVP.

Thanks in advance! Excited to be back in the saddle.

    Bow ranged you should go stam build (obviously)
    I would keep ww even if you don't use it at all just for free extra stam regen (even in human form) and no penalties while in human form. AoE for bow scorched earth and bombard is pretty good but you can get higher AoE with a melee off bar utilizing Veil of Blades, Sap essence/power extract, and steel tornadoes. I would advise focused aim spam basically for single target situations with basing the skills on that bar around that, and for aoe some sort of tornado-sap-veil kinda thing for aoe

    good WW NB PvE DPS stamina build.
    1st bar: bow
    venom arrow:lethal arrow:arrow barrage:acid spray:focused attacks
    2nd bar: 2H
    carve:executioner:power extraction:critical rush:rally

    ulti: flawless dawnbreaker

    at least 5 med armour
    Hundings rage (5) + Ashen grip (3)

    (and if you are redguard you can do very high AoE DPS with 2H for a long time)

    How should I put in my attribute points? 50/50 split between health and stam?

    Stamina upto slight oversoftcap, rest to hp. It is near 2/3 - 1/2 (hp/stamina) split and depends on armour enchants and food buff.
