Honestly, 100% increased attack speed is utterly ridiculous and nowhere near balanced! It’s moreso a handicap than a tactical advantage. Either remove it or drop the increased attack speed to a 50% or 25% bonus, please!

Rather than stating “it’s not balanced”, how about you explain why?

Show your work please.

SoE have finally been knocked off the top spot
in the list of developers I have the least faith & trust in.
Congratulations ArenaNet!

That utility skill is the only thing that balances the ranger’s inferior weapon dmg (keep in mind the shortbow is the only weapon that does close to normal dmg, the longbow dmg is plain broken)

What’s wrong with it? Many quickness skills have a drawback (drains all endurance/regeneration of endurance) and only last for several seconds (4 at most).

There are dozens of tactics to avoid being caught by it.
