I would like them to fix that skill up as well for better play. Ariyen 21:28, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

This skill isn't overpowered, why would you spam it on recharge? Insane Maestro User Insane Maestro Sig.png 00:12, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

I prefer to use this skill as a Ranger, to be an interrupter as well as using my pet to fight. So if I interrupt, the pet can kill. The quicker, the better. (I do have a pve ranger and a pvp ranger) Ariyen 06:37, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

This skill is a BOW ATTACK, Power Return is a Spell. Savage Shot is fine as it is. Needs no changing imo. - Reanimated X 08:02, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

...You actually suggested increasing the recharge of Savage Shot? And you actually compared this to Savage Slash? And even worse, you suggested spamming this interrupt on recharge (which is a horrible strategy) is not completely awful? Dude, the fuck, seriously. All I'm going to say about this crappy suggestion.

I agree with main article insofar as a nerf is needed here. Basically this skill can be used as quick shot, and it happens to interrupt anything too, there's no risk in firing them off. Add onto the fact that it is the number 1 spike followup in rangerspike shows you there's something wrong here. Dshot and concshot have their damage limited, which prevents use in this way, disrupting shot would be used instead of savage shot, so unfortunately that'd need a nerf too. Raise the recharge to a sensible 10 and reduce the basic damage of the attack to 1...12...15, +damage on a spell interrupt is fine though because that's actually rewarding the skill being used for its purpose. --Ckal Ktak Technobabble.jpg 15:53, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
Your logic fails miserably. Distracting Shot and Concussion Shot have reduced damage because they have powerful effects, e.g. daze and disabling skills. Wanna see something really OP? Look up Mathway. - Reanimated X 20:13, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
My logic actually agrees with yours. I'm saying that conc and dshot can't be used in spikes because of their reduced damage, I didn't say they were weak. Re-read what I actually wrote. --Ckal Ktak Technobabble.jpg 20:28, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
And what if using it as a quick shot actually IS the purpose? Thought of that? This skill is mainly an interrupting quick shot with aftercast being the downside. The +dmg is nothing more than a bonus. I don't see why that's a bad thing, Needling Shot is used for the same purpose mostly except that Savage Shot can also be used as an interrupt. EDIT: Coming to think of it, your idea takes the skill out of the game. Dark Morphon 15:58, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
Whereas nerfing it would mean you could buff the damage-based bow attacks without worrying about rangerspike so much. --@@@@
Savage was fine for 4 years or so - don't fuck with it. -- NUKLEAR User NuclearVII signature 3.jpgIIV 19:24, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
