So in the last weeks there were some posts of Irenio that he intends to take a look at shout. WHAO and SOTP are at a decent position after the recent improvements already. This leaves us with the following shouts that need work:
- Sic’Em – still clunky, interrupts pet F2
- Protect Me – still a mediocre copy of SoS
- Guard – still merely an “acitave trait” button
- Search and Rescue
Sic’Em
- make it always activate on demand and not interrupt anything, you should be able to cast this during pets performing their f2 just fine
- also add a 40% buff to condition damage, I know that this is highly neglectable anyway but if at some point it will be a thing this will be a flaw of the skill
Protect Me
- Put this skill on a much lower cooldown of about 20 seconds to make it differ from SoS
- it now only transfers 75% of the damage
- no longer prevents capture point contribution
- no longer stops the pet from attacking
- now creates a visual bond between the ranger and the pet with a range treshhold (similiar to glyph elite but obviously different particle effect), if the pet moves further than 800 away the skill ends
Guard
- pet guards area gaining 8 seconds of protection and stability (3 stacks)
- ranger can cast ‘Return to Pet’ while active (during the 8 seconds)
- ‘Return to Pet: Teleport the ranger to his pets position.’
- new cooldown: 45 sec
Search and Rescue
- cooldown now 20 seconds down from 85
- pet now gets 3 stacks of stability for 8 seconds
