Level 45 ranger with fairly good broker bought equipment:imbued cedar longbowSerrated bone dirkImbude lvl 40 short sword (not ebon cant remember the exact name)a few Adept 3'sour summoned line of arrowsand the legondary lvl 40 poison (dont remember its name)no stun poisons or resist poisons were usedI fought about 43 encounters of mobs either solo no arrows or in groups of 2-4 down arrows.  Most were 2-3 levels below me with 1 or 2 groups even to me.  The mobs were the ones that spawn along the river as you get near CT in the Feerrott. The dragon flies, sayters (spelling?), skaters, thulians, and a couple constructs.Using ACT:over all DPS 174Gleaming strike proc'd for 2%Quickshot proc'd for 4%Poison proc'd for 19%I could kick myself for not parsing the night before LU20 went live so I am not sure how these compare.Also, I noticed a big thing.  I was using a whole lot more power per fight than before.  I use to maybe use 1/4 a bar of power before but now I usually finish at 1/2 or lower.Another thing to note is that quickshot is suppose to be our offensive stance and it only generated 4% of my total damage (and thats one of my adept 3's).  Quickshot is now like all other procs, it only has one chance to proc off a CA.  This is a problem for a solo ranger as I could only get off 2 at best 3 bow CA's before the mob had closed ranks on me.  Quickshot needs to be placed back on the old proc rate system this will help some with our DPS.  Give it a chance to proc off each arrow we shoot.  After all, if I use the triple shot line of CA's I consume 3 arrows (if I am not mistaken), I should have a chance to proc quickshot on each arrow.I'd post the graph but I am not exactly sure how to do that <span>:smileytongue:</span><div></div>
