The shortbow change should be reverted
Shortbow was good, now it’s not so good.
Rangers have always been a bit ignored by ArenaNet.
Jumping puzzles, love them or hate them, I hate them. Thread killer.
Since changes to the game are supposed to make the game more fun, I propose that this change has failed.
How much fun was being lost because of a supposed animation glitch? How much fun was lost because people were using an auto attack as the main source of damage on a weapon?
Now how much fun has been lost because anyone using a shortbow suddenly attacks slower and deals less damage? This is clearly a net loss in total fun. Just revert the change and admit it was a mistake.
Honestly, one of the most fun parts about the shortbow was that it attacked fast. That’s what made the “feel” of the weapon. By slowing this down and changing the interaction with Quickening Zephyr, that feel and that fun has been noticeably lessened.
