<p>Focus Aim was changed intentionally to accuracy rather than crit.  Regarding the auto attack problem, good luck getting them to acknowledge your post.  Too many people have mentioned it for them to not know about it, but they have not responded.</p>

One of the biggest being that Rangers are left out of item progression with TSF with flurry.
