Complaining a bit much?

[roblinb]

<div>I'm in Sinking Sands now killing triple up raptors with a little kiting and only Adeste's Disruption poison up.  I have above average gear.  They hit me hard, but I have killed six and have never went lower than yellow health.  Is it possible some of us are whining a bit much?  YES we got hit hard by the latest proc changes, but I'm doing alright.  I can live without destroying everything in a matter of seconds :smileytongue:</div><div> </div><div>So who else still thinks we still are a cool class? I do! :smileyhappy:</div>

I think you should stay away from the keyboard. SOE don't want us kiting and to be fair I don't want to be either because it's far too situational.Taking their heads out of their arses and actually learning how people play their classes (all their class) would be a step in the right direction.<div></div>

<div></div>wow that was harsh bro, I was trying to cheer people up here :smileytongue:

[roblinb]

<div></div>I have but I can't find any triple up greens at 60 :smileytongue:

[hieronym]

<div>the mobs in KOS hit harder and have a lot more HP than anything else. SO while you maybe able to drop mobs quicker in DOF etc, triple fire or sniper a KOS mob and you hardly make a dent!!</div>

I'm REALLY confused. Wednesday night I was in TT DIEING to green ^. Thursday I'm in BS walking ALL OVER Yellow V. Any enlightenment?<div></div>

SOE does not base their class balancing on a ranger kiting and they have shown that they frown on the practice because it can make all but encounters that will one shot kill you trivial in their minds. If a large numeber of rangers starting doing what you're suggesting the next patch update would read -Ranged Auto Attack can not longer be used on the run. Or they'll just pack even more mobs into the next set of zones.</p>
