Hello,
I, like many others, am unsatisfied with the Ranger main hand options and I would like to propose some changes. I would like to know what you guys think:
I suggest adding the dagger as a ranger main hand weapon, the skills of the dagger would be essentially throwing daggers; use the skills from the current main hand axe for the dagger. This would allow the axe to be changed and new skills added (let me know what you think the axe should be like). Another option for the dagger is to take the skills from the current sword and give them to the dagger. This would open up room to give the sword brand new skills.
I personally would like to see new sword skills, let me know what you think!
Thanks

I would have enjoyed seeing D/D be what S/D is now (a very mobile melee harass/dps set), leaving the sword a whole new set of options.

Would love a change, make the axe a condition melee weapon (The sword is already a power based one) and the dagger a ranged one (i would make it power based, too).
Axe skills could be changed tho this:

1: tripple autoattack chain, at least a bit more damage and a higher attackspeed. bleeding the foe with it’s 2nd and 3rd attack. Of course with an aoe around the target.
2: a leap that applies 5 stacks of bleeding in the center, amount of bleeding goes down to 1 stack at the edge. Gaining protection for 2 seconds when succesfully hitting an enemy
3: wouldn’t change anything here, it’s good as it is.

Just my two cents.
