Side tracking from rangers' skills, I'd like to point out that our bone armor seriously needs fixing as well. Look at the minor bone bp, it adds 60 light heal......
For a bp skill bonus, its kinda bs frankly even at 120 for ancient set. Not to forget the bone boots which adds 10 skewer damage *claps* which every ranger would use it....... Said no rangers ever!

My suggestion would be to swap the skill bonus from the bp to the gloves and increase/decrease the skill bonus accordingly. And for the boots, ill suggest the skill bonus adds barbed shot instead of skewer.

YES +1. This is exactly what I wanted to say. It's just not fair how sucky this armor is when you compare it to any of the other classes, especially the mages and druids.

It's good to get this into perspective, mages got SUCH a huge boost, this really is a tiny reduction in comparison to what was added in the expansion. Overall mages are still hugely more powerful than pre-update.

And rangers ?

Can you please give us rangers the boost we need since you did it for mages im very certain you can do it for rangers. A DPS druid has more dmg then us.

A list of things I want for rangers to have:
1. Shorter cooldown and faster shooting with rapid shot. (I like the new energy usage)
2. Longer rooting for longshot, probably about 6 seconds.
3. Make steady aim as it used to be.
4. Sharp shot damage increase.
5. Remove healing in duel nerf.
6. Make bolas 30 seconds in pvp.
I feel like any other class would beat me in a duel because of the healing and bolas reductions in duels. I was helping a 60 mage with Kiara the other day and they got the kill. At one point they did 950 damage with shards and I kind of did a double take. Have mage skills really been improved (I use the term loosely) that much? I think it's the ranger's turn for a major upgrade.

I agree with everything except heal and bolas.

Light heal, they already halved every healing skills that would be an unfair advantage.
Bolas, seriously 30 sec?! Melee class can't even scratch you.

I lvled a bit since update 4, and this is what I think:
•Barbed shot, perfect skill
•Light heal, VERY interruptible
•Easier to lvl with warriors than solo now
•Rapid shot MUST be maxed to work good
•Cooldown for rapidshot is too long
•Bolas still good
•Sharp shot needs some more power

Well that's what I think. Some stuff needs some work but overall pretty good.

Huh? the mage boost was a joke. We are still down around 40% from prenerf. But ya rangers suck now too. Sorry.

+1 to all except sharp and barbed, they need to take into account damage just like all other classes' skills. I ditched sharp because too frequently it would be barely hitting more than my auto.

Please fix rangers otm, I don't have fun playing anymore.

Any ranger would take the boost that mages got from update 3 even after the nerf , even before the current boost lol.

Alyssandra has quit since she created this thread. I guess that shows how terrible the update was for rangers.

i was playing as ranger too and I agree with the points others made on:

1. rapid shot's cool down too long and with no significant attack speed boost
2. sharpshot damage may weaker than auto...i know it depends on lvl but this is an attack skill !

on other points like dps and pvp...umm...i've read many posts, people are trying to make its class better than other classes.
Before we talk about classes, we should first figure out what your class should be in this game.

Warrior -- best armor and defence, so it suits tank most
Rogue -- assassin type, have good attack skills and some what evasion rate but with low defence, suits dps for sure
Mage -- best dps for sure becoz it shouldn't have as good evasion as rogues and yes, low defense is nothing wrong
druid -- should be the best support class but...
ranger -- dps? support? it should be a hybrid class in between, shouldn't be better support than druid and shouldn't attack better than mage and rogue

This should be the initial and major positioning for all classes, agree ? I know you can have your own build which makes like a dps ranger or a dps druid as this game gives us a way to make our own direction and build but please, don't make your own direction ruin up the main stream.

So before we talk about being kicking out of tanks or dps in group, please first think about what the initial positioning of your class is.

The only balance i think being broken is that rangers are now better supporting character in game, better than druids i may say. When rangers are complaining light heal always being interrupted, you have no idea what the rate of interrupt a druid may have when casting its skills. For rangers, your healing skill should be the second best and druid's nature touch should be the best, rite? But as the casting time is so long, it can hardly be cast during battle, much harder than light heal....

So, for the two classes I put time on it, rangers were being nerfed but it suits more to its position in game now and druids...OTM, please adjust the skills for them.
