Certain CA's need a dmg increase

[Zemeckis]

<DIV>Some of the 1min recast CA's such as trick arrow and miracle arrow, and also debilitating arrow (30 sec recast) need to have a DPS increase or another debuff/mod added to them.  I was just reading over the assassins forums and all of their attacks that have a 1min recast or higher are close to 1k dmg and lots of them add DoTs and mitigation debuffs.  Rangers get a snare on almost every skill we use...come on with that.  To my knowledge those snares don't stack and SoE is anti-kiting anyways so whats the point.  Post here if anyone agrees with me<BR><BR>Heres a link to some of the dmg on most of my ca's...all but one are adept or higher, why would one class need so many slows?<BR><A href="http://putfile.com/pic.php?pic=6/16423091045.jpg&s=x4" target=_blank>http://putfile.com/pic.php?pic=6/16423091045.jpg&s=x4</A><BR><BR>and heres a link to a list of assassin skills...about 3/4 the way down the page is where the pic is, kinda makes me jealous<BR><A href="http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=40&message.id=5952" target=_blank>http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=40&message.id=5952</A></DIV> <P>Message Edited by Zemeckis85 on <SPAN class=date_text>06-14-2005</SPAN> <SPAN class=time_text>09:12 PM</SPAN></P><p>Message Edited by Zemeckis85 on <span class=date_text>06-14-2005</span> <span class=time_text>09:13 PM</span>

Yeah why do we have so many slows now that you made them practically useless SOE? <div></div>

<DIV>I share these concerns and second the idea. We could use a boost on some of those arts, unless we're deliberately supposed to be "less" predator than our evil brethren. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Is it about time for another compiled list of ranger issues?</DIV>

<P>Ok great.  Since I do a ton of solo'ing I'll feed you the problems I percieve on that end.</P> <P>Hopefully we can get some contributions across the board and really compile something.</P>

Before I read that post I was kinda satisfied with my ranger.  With the recent nerf to kiting and the dmg that assassins have compared to rangers....I'm thinkin of starting another class.  Not sure why SoE hates rangers, but its [Removed for Content] me off.

<DIV>I touched on the kiting issue in another thread in this forum and got SLAMMED for it.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>It DEFINITELY is an issue least at level 22/23 soloing.</DIV>

<P><FONT size=2>You got slammed for it because you made melodramatic remarks like "bows are useless." C'mon man, you're in the ranger forums - you expect a comment like that is gonna get enthusiastic applause?? Heh! Seriously, I don't think it was the content of the concern, but the method of expressing it. Several of us have commented in various threads about kiting being more difficult. </FONT></P> <P>Khalan, I assume you have / will start a separate thread to start collecting these issues?</P>

<P><SPAN>Hello there, I am a 41 Assassin (MM) who followed this thread from the gameplay boards post.<SPAN>  </SPAN>My memory can only provide one quick comparison, that of Assassin’s Shot.<SPAN>  </SPAN>At adept 1 it reads (roughly) 300 – 600 damage, with 400ish getting through on average.<SPAN>  </SPAN>Now the adept 3 listed an incredible damage increase, which isn’t consistent to the increase from app 1 to adept 1.<SPAN>  </SPAN>Perhaps rangers (with the utmost respect to the OP) with more adept 3’s can post their CA descriptions?<SPAN>  </SPAN>That would make this comparison a tad more accurate.<SPAN>  </SPAN>Good day, all.</SPAN></P>

<P>Here we are, hope this helps. I want to do a more comprehensive Skill Break Down. But this is the Basic.</P> <P> </P> <P><IMG src="http://basti.homelinux.net/unitas/gallery/albums/Bots%2C-Bugs%2C-and-Bunk/aau.jpg"></P> <P><IMG src="http://basti.homelinux.net/unitas/gallery/albums/Bots%2C-Bugs%2C-and-Bunk/aav.jpg"></P> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>P.s Longshank is still broken with it's delay! Soooo annoying.</DIV>

<P>Jay, just read your post in the other thread. My faith is restored.</P><p>Message Edited by StealthM0de on <span class=date_text>06-16-2005</span> <span class=time_text>05:36 PM</span>
