[edit] Captain Osric
I am not seeing this skill in Yak's Bend. It is unlocked on my account. Any one else verify? Retro77 03:53, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Armor Ignoring?
Trivial thing, but it seems like sometimes the damage from this is armor ignoring...I'll test this in a bit. --Srakin 20:22, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
I just tested it out, and it is indeed armor ignoring. Shot each dummy twice, and at 11 expertise it did 12 damage to all.--ҳїתтй 20:33, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
Agreed. I tested this today and got the same results. ^^ --Srakin 19:35, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
12 armor ignoring damage I can live with. -- Farlong

[edit] Expertise Doesn't make this skill any better
Really, what is the difference between the damage at 14 expertise to that at 0 expertise? Now, I can subtract as well as the next guy, but I know that it is not much. Instead of increasing the damage, make the disabled duration go from 8..20..23 (8 Additional Seconds at 0 Expertise.. 20 Additional Seconds at 12 Expertise.. 23 Additional Seconds at 15 Expertise) 67.82.179.27 22:30, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
- no, dshot is fine exactly how it is, dont fuck up what isn't broken. No 22:34, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
- To rephrase that, if they changed this skill, it would mean similar skills like Disrupting Chop, Disrupting Lunge, and Magebane Shot need to be changed. While any positive change in the Magebane line would be useful, it's also noteworthy that Punishing Shot doesn't have much more damage, it's elite, and it doesn't do the disabling. Supporting details for the literature. I mean win. --Chaiyo Kaldor talk contribs 22:39, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
- Both the non-elite ranger interupts are broken. =\ They cost almost nothing considering expertise, have better effects than their non-elite counterparts and recharge fast enough that you can spam them without worrying about timing. Saying Mesmer is the shut-down profession while these are still the way they are is a bit of a joke. If you're running mesmer, and the other team has a ranger, you can say goodbye to your Diversion and Signet of Humility if their ranger even looks at you. =\ 71.127.159.233 16:12, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
- I have to agree. Most ranger builds nowadays are just pure copypasta. There's always Unguent, Natural Stride, Mending Touch, Savage Shot, Distracting shot. Storm chaser or lightning reflexes could be added in, as with a rezz, and the Elites are either Burning, Incendiary, Broadhead or Magebane shot/arrows. Oh, don't forget Apply Poison, too.
