Hello fellow rangers and others parousing forums. I just wanted to get your guys thoughts on a couple things as well as share my thoughts with you all.

1) The long shot cast time. I think its a bunch of horse that it is not instacast. (Not to mention you need to be standing far away but that is for a different topic.) Long shot should be an instacast skill. If rogues have SS which does around the same damage but is instacast and makes rogues jump around. It bugs me that I cant even hit first when I am supposed to be a ranged class and rouges can be ranged too.
2) The animation for all the skills takes too long. When casting all skills whether its barbed sharp or long shot the animations slow down significantly ruining the flow of all your shots. Not to mention the annoying pause after the skill is cast. Again lets compare to rogues. Quickstrike flows smoothly into the auto attack while we are stuck waiting for the annoyingly long animations and the even more annoying delay after the skill is cast.
3) Rapid Shot cooldown. All I need to say is its a load of horse crap. 1:30 cooldown for a skill that when its at 40/40 it only lasts for 1:00. Why is it like this you may wonder? I have no idea. You may as well just use a haste lix which is what this skill is supposed to be.

Those are just 2 things I can think of now. Let me know what you all think. Im sure Ill add more soon.

1) Totally agree... i mean longshot is our highest dmg skill and it should be instacast like shadowstrike. Sucks that that most of the time I am interrupted when casting the skill...

2)Totally, true. When during pvp, it always looks like I won, but in reality my last arrow was off and I actually lost.

1.) I agree also, but instead of it only being instacast, i think they should lower the range down to the same range of sharp shot since(like candies said) its the rangers highest dmg skill:)

2.) I agree:) There shouldnt be any animations after rangers cast their skills:)

I don't think they should increase the distance shot from. It is called longshot.... Anyways, almost always cast in the beginning of the fight, but the cooldown is fast enough to use it again. But since you can't get away from it and cast longshot the cooldown is misused, this causes a problem.

IMO should be renamed to Pin or Snipe. Shadowstrike - you don't even turn into a shadow or anything and there is no striking involved, just you scaring the crap out of it that it loses life (basically you just appear in front of it and vuala, damage.)


+1 to instacast

Yes i was thinking about the same things today that annoying wait after casting skills another problem im having is when i click longshot and then double it take me like 5 seconds for it to work because im not close enough so it freezes up and then runs toward the target ik that this could be solved if i am closer to the target but i don't want it to tell me that i am too close to use longshot defiantly agreeing with the first post...... Oh and please fix the shadowstrike interruption in duels it is fine if it goes the same distance but please do not make it interrupt our longshot

1) I agree it should be at least a very short cast time. I would also like to see the distance requirement BANISHED. Just because its longshot doesn't mean it needs a distance requirement, also the requirement makes it almost useless on mobs and bosses unless you can keep your distance (sometimes bolas doesn't even work).

2) I agree sharpshot should be insta cast "free damage" like quick strike. Otherwise... well there is a reason why most people don't use sharp shot. Also the dmg should be improved.

This is the most accurate topic ever

I think a good alternative to Long Shot range requirement would be to extend the period of time the mob is rooted. I would love to see this last for 15 or 20 seconds!

That would make the rangers really op. Longshot, bolas, auto a few times, repeat. This would destroy so many in pvp and basically allow a group of rangers to down any dl boss.
