I consider Rapid Fire as a hard hitter and a legitimate hatred spender. I realize I have no pierce, as I don't think it's completely necessary. As for the rest of your points, read the posts above.
Thanks for your thoughts!
"Rapid Fire" is a damage-over-time-Skill, there is no hard-hitting in this skill. Remember you’ll have to stand still while channeling and that’s not so easy as it sounds. A pierce-Skill is really important as you can experience in beta. Sometimes important mobs are standing behind their minions and you’ll have to fight through them before your’re able to attack their summoners.
strafe is the answer. it does slightly less dmg at less speed but you get a super speed bonus while you can run around channeling it and the rockets do more dmg, althogh there are less rockets. id just replace rapid fire with strafe and your good sir.

for a trapster/rocket build where you just drop traps/turret/caltrops and kite around with strafe
