Body Shot

Issue

Rangers have no mean of applying cracked armor.

Cracked armor is too rare for a condition, more skills should be able to apply it.

Conditions are too easly removed giving this skill too little use for the coördination required to make full use of this skill.

Suggestion

Change functionality to,

5 6

Bow Attack. If this attack hits, you deal +5...17...20 damage. If this attack is blocked, taget foe suffers from Cracked Armor for 4...10...12 seconds.

This Skill has simple only too less possibilities to make good use of it, due to the trigger effect setted on cracked armor and the Ranger having no skills self, that can deal this condition.

Suggestion

Change functionality of the Skill to,

5 6

Bow Attack. If this attack hits, you deal +5...17...20 damage. If this attack is hits a foe that suffers on Cracked Armor, Weakness or Daze, You will gain 10 Energy.

This Way the Skill will receive more options for the Trigger Energy Effect and will also become far more interesting as Energy Management Skill for the Ranger, especially in Combination with other Ranger Skills.
