Feedback:User/Fia/Ranger update (mostly PvE)

From Guild Wars Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

General trends (PvE): quick single-target take-downs, late-game use for charmable animals, viable trapping in general play, and tactical manipulations with nature rituals and their end ("equilibrium") effects.

  • In PvE, each rank of Expertise also reduces recharge of attack skills by 1%.
  • Reduce nature ritual activations to 3s, increase spirit levels (with size scaling, like minions), make effects more noticeable and more widely usable.
  • Reduce most pet attack recharges in half, or have each rank of BM reduce recharge by x% (minimum base 10s).
  • Fix the Melandru's Assault bug.
  • Ability to flag pets.
  • 2 factors affecting chance to miss with bows: distance to target (low correlation) and Marksmanship attribute (medium correlation).
