StamBlade bow build Champion points questions

Title kind of says it all, but really just wanting to know you guys thoughts on it. I choose to roll a Khajitt thinking that I would enjoy the dual wielding, but ended up liking to keep range and only close in if I have to. I have 450+ champion points currently and for the most part I lean towards poison as well. Also a solid bar setup for the bow which is my front bar and Duel wield being my back bar. Thanks in advance.

    My main is a khajit stamblade. Bow is very viable in pvp right now...it's a bit tough for me in solo pve, and so-so in group play.

    When I run bow as my attack bar, I tend to slot poison inject, focus aim, ambush, piercing mark and killer blade. Often I swap mark for grim focus...if you get the hang of it, it's a great ability. I also sometimes swap mark out for...uh...the shadow pet ability...forget what it's called. With a bow, it can be quite useful to have a "get away from here" option.

    In champion points, I always feel that basic is better than specialized. In other words, mighty increases physical damage on every stamina attack. This massively beats any specialized item in the line, like making bow heavy attacks stronger...or whatever.

    Therefore, I personally stack almost all red points equally in hardy and elemental defend. This reduces incoming stam and mag damage, protecting from all attacks. I stack greens in stam recovery and reduce stam cost, with a few in health and mag recover. And I stack blues in mighty and increasing crit damage. I used to spread them around, but changed to this strategy based on some expert advice and it instantly made a big difference.

    Duel wield: bloodthirst, hidden blade, blood craze, vigor, killers blade. Ulti: incap/rend

    Bow: poison injection, endless hail, grim focus, siphoning attacks, flex. ulti: dawnbreaker or veil of blades.

    Snipe is for pvp.

    You can do amazing dps with this.

    Cheers!

    Thanks for the insight guys. I leveled up a 2 hand to 50 today to see what the difference would be between dual and 2 hand and to be honest the 2 gander really outperformed the dual by a landslide. I like that I have all 3 leveled and morphed out so that I can bounce between the 3 at any given moment.
