ArenaNet:Skill feedback/Ranger/Barrage

Overshadowed by Volley

 * Issue
 * Is elite and has the same area as Volley, making Volley a better option. Barrage rarely uses all 7 arrows in the description.


 * Suggestion
 * Increase area to nearby. With "adjacent" area, Barrage rarely uses all 7 arrows. Increasing this would make Barrage more useful.

 * Issue
 * Barrage was recently buffed to get it's damage to be more inline with other skills.


 * Suggestion
 * I would prefer a drop in the damage buff to +5..8..10 if the skill allowed the use of preparations. Volley can remain unchanged to keep Barrage elite and rangers wouldn't need to go outside of their profession to

use make their main PvE elite skill more damaging.
 * Barrage doesn't allow preparations because it would be used with Apply Poison and Ignite Arrows.

Buff this skill for PvE

 * Issue
 * Most of the arrows are wasted because it's only "adjacent".


 * Suggestion
 * Increase AoE to nearby(PvE). Leave it as it is in PvP, we don't want barrage-way teams.

Certain preparations should be usable with this

 * Issue
 * Removes all preparations


 * Suggestion
 * "Lose all Wilderness Survival preparations".

 * Issue
 * another skill useless in pvp


 * Suggestion
 * split for pvp and pve, pvp version:
 * Elite skill. For seconds, next  times you attack a foe with an attack skill, you shoot an additional arrow. This arrow has the same effect, as attack skill you used.
 * would make funny rspikes.
