Most suggestion nerf underused preparations. The current version is way better imo --Kali Shin Shivara 17:35, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

That makes more sense... grammatically. I don't understand the logic though. Currently, Preparations other than Apply Poison are almost never used in PvP and Preparations are rarely used at all in PvE (even rangers themselves aren't common in organised teams). It's obvious that changes need to be made to the other Preparations to make them more viable. My suggestions for Preparations allow them to be 'pre-cast', as they don't wear off after a time limit. So, you can set up Glass Arrows before battle, blow up enemies with up to 15 attacks, then (because you used it before battle and it's recharged already) recast and repeat. I also plan to make skills like Volley usable with Preparations, since the 15-attack-limit on my suggested Preparations means it wouldn't really be overpowered as the Preparation would simply run out more quickly. In ideal circumstances my suggested Glass Arrows deals up to 240 damage as well as inflicing Bleeding to a a group, then can be recast immediately and repeated. Compare that to the current GA: up to 4 extra damage, single target, with conditional bleeding... not a nerf in my opinion. --Fiore 18:39, 8 February 2012 (UTC)
