So who is using this set, and which traitline is it for? It would be nice if the order was the same as in the trait window, but that probably makes too much sense.

It is for the red traitline + capstone, but I really dont think it's much good, +25% crit multiplier is good, it only lasts for 20 seconds every 2-5 minutes and it's not as good as what you get with the 2 other sets.
If you really just want to make your char better and have the extra seals, get the cudur set after faron. I use it during t2 bosses right before challenge sets and our skills reset, so I can keep that tasty 25% critical multiplier up for the first 40 seconds of a boss fight. Other than that, I can't really think of when it'd be actually useful, takes too long to swap out for faron's better dps otherwise.
Cudor is good as a swap set...
Swap it in to Burn Hot then swap back for the juicy bonus's.
For personal DPS, the best current set is the Faron with fleetness capstone. If you do not like the blue line then I would suggest getting the Gonathradir set first, as the DPS boost to the whole fellowship is worth more
Of course... if you don't mind doing the gear swapping (macro's) you can get a bit of DPS boost by swapping between at least 3 sets (Faron, Cudor, Draigoch) With a possible swap in of some of the PVMP armour for the extra PM/crit.
Faron set = Your best bet. Buff is up 100% of the time traited properly.
Cudur set = Your second bet. Buff is awesome! But it's only good every 2-5 minutes for 20 seconds.
Gonathradir set = You have too many seals. I could only get the buff up every 3-5 swift bows. Swift bow is on a 10second CD. So every 30-50 seconds I got this awesome buff! That would only stay on for 10 seconds >:[ It's good though, if you macro it in just for swift bow.
Faron set = Your best bet. Buff is up 100% of the time traited properly.
So how do you "trait" properly to use it?
Five deep in blue with the blue Capstone (Fleetness legendary) slotted.
Same with the Cudur Set, just in red (Cool Burn)
If you tend to trait 4/3 or 3/4 or, ahahaha, yellow. Gonathrandir is the way to go since it does not depend your trait setup.
We as hunters are blessed with two very veritable traitlines, we always argue about which one performs best. Additionally the hybrid trait setups that deal a lot of DPS as well without cornering us into a legendary skill.
...Oh and we have trapper of foes...malarky, but it wouldn't look right if one class was missing the yellow traitline.

Run 4 Cudur, 2 of an off-set and hot swap a 5th cudur pieces for BH. Its a nice all-around setup thats easy to use, allowing more time to think about other things.
