Dear A-net and guys:
Thx for a really good game development on PVP/PVE content.
To tell the true that it is disappoint to the live-stream.
A-net said ranger is the best range single DPS in the game and mesmer is the second. But the true is ranger’s range dps is lower than not only mesmer but also warrior’s range- attack . And ,from the live-stream ,I just wonder , what it the trade off between best single dps and AOE dps? The only trait that make LB AOE is the pierce arrows. But u can keep it with power-line I/X at the same time. Pierce Arrows is not a really good AOE either.
Some times I just not sure did the A-net really review player’s feedback on balance? A-net sometimes show some balance that is the suit for the real game balance. (for example , the Cri-damage nerfs , the problem is warrior too powerful on dungeon but not cri-damage . Lot of classes is suit for the original cir-damage.)
Ranger with the best range damage above all classes was true 1.5 year ago. With a 1200 short bow + quickness+ beast master 5 point to get quickness +2 times quicker quickness than now , ranger was the top 3 dps class.
After all the nerfs(Not only the nerf for ranger like 900 SB , but also the quickness/cri-damage nerf for all game) and seldom buffs (what a silly trait XIII of first line?), ranger can only play sprit-ranger in PVP and useless at PVE -dungeon now.
In my advice. Rangers may have a trait not only share boons with pets , but also pet can share with rangers.
With this trait rangers will be more careful on keeping pets undead. ( With trait “pet gets might on critical hit” + new trait, ranger can have better dps) Also, with the new trait that range distant limit of LB can be fixed , since u can also get boon even if u are in far distance.
Second advice is that LB should have the arrow speed as with power-line XIII but without it. LB is not that hurt, XIII is not match the price. Or, buff the power-Coefficient of LB so that trait will worth.
Third let the pets improve with equipment. Half of dps is based on pets , and power coefficient is low for ranger weapon. It is not fair that ranger can not improve half of themselves.
If the pets is dead dead dead in dungeon/WvW , which mean that it is not fair that ranger still with low -power coefficient on weapon.
Forth, plz let the SB also can be range improve by eagle-eyes. SB is useless now…
some of my advice. Even i have all 8-classes, i still love ranger every much. It is sad that when every i play ranger, people just say no rangers even if i change to melee/support build.
Sry for my poor English and thx for ur reading.
