I could pad down the hallway and ask someone if we made a tiny change to the ranger. But I’d be embarrassed if a dev looked at my funny, or told me “You’re nuts”… although that may or may not have happened a few times in the past.

So I’m asking my fellow rangers: Did a new bit of combat chatter recently get added? I’m hearing my character (female ranger) say “BAM!” every now and then when she fires her bow, and I honestly don’t remember her saying that in the past.

Maybe I just missed it in the flurry of combat. Or… is it new?

My human female thief says this all the time when entering combat. I don’t think the sound clip is new… but maybe they added it for ranger. :o

I have a male Norn Ranger myself, and I have never heard that dialogue. So that cuts that demographic out of the picture.

Hmm…is it like a BAM! Chef Emeril Lagasse would throw down or is it something else? I’ve honestly never heard it in game but now you have me wondering…

Thanks for the references, Cindas — very helpful.

Crapgame — don’t forget “long walks on the beach” in that profile, hmmm?

I did a check on tracked changes/edits for the wiki and it appears that it’s been in there since the original post. Therefore, while I hear “You’ll be feeling that one for days!” and “Hurts, doesn’kitten” allllll the time, I apparently was just missing hearing the “BAM!” until recently. I recently make tweaks to my volume and my settings — quite honestly, trying to turn down the whiney of The Dreamer — so maybe that’s why the “BAM!” just started being audible to me recently.

Thanks for the info, guys!

Cool, Gaile. And nice hearing of you in this forum-section!

Durzlla: I know female sylvari saying ‘give up yet?’ during fights when they crit.

Holy smokes, I just realized my ranger is my only human female. Never heard “Bam!” before or now.

Making 4-th Axe skill “Path of Scars” ground targetable is a bullkitten, it is almost unusable properly. Turn it back to no ground target please and double the damage.

And increase the width by 300%, let it apply slow and confusion, make instant and increase the range to 1500.
We should also make it unblockable.

Keep ideas real. You wouldn’t be fine if Warrior’s Rush dealt double of current damage, either.
