Demon Hunter build based around Cull the Weak (slowing) and Marked for Death debuffs. I intend to play PvE solo, but want the Marked for Death debuff in groups.
For small groups of monsters or big bad bosses, the Companion (Spider) will slow them down giving me the 15% extra damage from Cull the Weak and I can just mow em down with Impale/Hungering Arrow (I'd also throw up a Mark on big bads).
For larger groups, I'll throw Caltrops around, a couple of Marks, and then Multishot (which glyphed will give me back the discipline, while benefitting from Cull the Weak and the contagious Marks jumping around).
The two other passives I chose: Archery because I don't know what weapons I'll use (though I feel like fast weapons may benefit most, given I don't have vault for mobility I'll want to move-fire-move-fire-move). Hot Pursuit was really because I want to play solo and running to my next kill is important.
If I don't find the Spider particularly useful, I was going to change it to a bat to get my Hatred up faster (and thus, more time with Hot Pursuit). I was also thinking of using the Templar as my companion, and getting his ability which snares anything that hits him (again, replacing the need for the spider), and his final ability also boosts my hatred regen a little. We'll see.
Also, I did consider Entangling Shot runed for 4 targets, but I think I prefer the higher single target damage of Hungering Arrow. I also considered Evasive Fire (which I think works better with faster weapons), but the marginal extra damage on the first shot doesn't seem like it would keep up with Hungering Arrow (and, if enemies get up in my grill, I'd be throwing Caltrops at my feet and a Mark up to help bring them down).
