Hello all. I haven't played a Hunter yet and I'm just getting caught up. I would like to know, in your experience, which is better for a classic Longbow Hunter: Colossus Slayer or Horde Breaker?

Colossus Slayer seems to be better for single targets, i.e. the many boss encounters (Owlbear Mother, Bulette, etc. pp.).

Horde Breaker is not supposed to be as compatible with Hunter's Mark, if I understand it correctly:

"With Hunter's Mark, Hijorn deals d8+d6+3 points of damage on a longbow hit, averaging 11 points of damage. However, the bonus damage from Hunter's Mark does not apply to a secondary target, so her base damage is 8.5 instead."

Or is that nonsense because the quotation is from a post from 2014 (TT): https://forums.giantitp.com/showthread.php?377065-Colossus-Slayer-vs-Horde-Breaker-Reference-Table

For the more experienced among you who have already played it: After killing a target with an active Hunter's Mark within the 5 meter range, can I reapply the Hunter's Mark to the next target available through Horde Breaker?
