Hey guys,

If you don’t remember, a while back ArenaNet was talking about adding features that would make mesmers not so “needed” for their portal functionality. Do you think rangers could supply this function in the game? My thoughts are this: add a new pet whos special ability is to burrow into the ground creating an entry hole, and the skill then turns into a secondary skill in which the creature burrows itself back up, creating the exit hole that functions exactly like the mesmer’s portal.

Tell us your ideas and discuss the possibilities.

You know, they wanted to include portal functionality on more classes, and they also wanted to give Longbow better ways to manage distance.

I’m just saying, I might stop hating Long-Range Shot with the burning fire of a thousand suns if I could utilize some good forethought to reset my distance instead of playing the world’s most hopelessly futile game of keep-away ever. Replacing Hunter’s Shot with a 1200 range Portal for me and four of my closest friends isn’t too OP is it? Actually it probably is, but dang it, that weapon needs help.

You lost me at pet. Last thing we need is to rely more on anets shoddy programing and that’s all the pet is.
