Server Latency & 40 ms "fix"
I’m sure the server checks to make sure your skill has channeled for the length it’s meant to channel for, otherwise how else would you prevent people from hacking with 0 aa latency? This is definitely not 40 ms though, whatever they did they did it wrong, this is potentially the worst way to go about the animation fix.
If they really just wanted to nerf ranger dps with shortbow into the ground I’d be fine with it if that’s what the patch notes said, but they clearly indicated that this was just meant to be an animation fix.
