Stay far away and keep shooting. Snipe and Tempest Shot are your steady damage, and each Snipe hit brings Deadshot back 1s sooner.

E fires Marking Shot for Precision, Suppressing Arrow for a stun chance, then Burst Arrow and Deadshot. Deadshot hits 35% harder while Precision is on you.

Open with Snare Shot. Burst Arrow needs that Slow, and Drill Dart's Bleed follows to cut their Incoming Heal by 60%.
Gale Arrow adds Combat Speed, and Illusory Arrow Blinds them for 3s.
Press E: Marking Shot, Suppressing Arrow, Burst Arrow, then Deadshot while Precision is still up.
Up against a group? Explosion Trap, then Explosive Arrow, Griffon Arrow and Arrow Storm. Explosive Arrow does 20% more to slowed targets.
Any gap left over gets Snipe and Tempest Shot.

Key Bind Setup

Keep Snare Shot right next to E. You press them back to back almost every fight.
Put Explosion Trap and the rest of the AoE Setup on keys you can reach while backing away.
