The damage increase in PvE as well as returning the removed bounce on the auto attack will help a lot and make the weapon more fun.

Nah, better give Shortbow Revenant/Renegade a piercing AoE (that does AoE everytime it hits/pierces, by the way) and give more bounces to Shortbow Thief (because they actually asked for it ? Like, no, lol).

Shortbow Revenant AA is actually Shortbow Ranger piercing + Pistol Engineer AoE, but with better conditions and power coefficient. Yay, power creep.

At time point, I gave up about ANet doing any significant buff to Axe. How did they even let Winter’s Bite pass to PvE, but not Splitblade ? Ranger has little access to AoE/Tagging, why make it even harder by removing a bounce ?

Oh, and if Splitblade would stop aiming the ground when I free cast without having a target. that would be great. Make it an aimed cone AoE if you need, like you did with Shortbow Revenant #3, ANet.

You don’t want anything to work like renegade SB3. That ability is terrible. First you need to be at max range for it to even do the best damage (useless for raids) and on top of that it’s bugged and doesn’t work properly on uneven terrain or if you have any sort of object blocking part of it. Which most likely means it will continue to have this “feature” for another two years or so.

Renegade SB2 doesnt hit anything
SB3 barely hit anything twice too.

Both are garbage skills in my opinion.

Ah, I was saying that the cone stay the same as right now, but with a ground triangle/aoe target on the ground, because you can’t really free cast it (it will aim the ground without a target).

it’s bugged and doesn’t work properly on uneven terrain or if you have any sort of object blocking part of it.

But, yes… I didn’t think about other bugs that it will create.
