Air or Fire for shortbow?
Depends on what you do most.
But most would say fire now since the air nerf. Because SB is the goto weapon in aoe situations and fire sigil compounds this.
Imo accuracy
5% critical chance when you aoe worth more then 2000 extra damage every 5 seconds
but betwen air /fire — > fire

What did they nerf on air?
I thought they only nerfed rune of air.. not sigil of air?

Well if it’s Fire vs. Air I’d say pick Fire. Air does only slightly more damage and Fire is AoE, which ends up dealing more damage in most situations.
However you might also want to consider Perception if you don’t have a stackig Sigil yet since the Shortbow stacks up quite quickly.
I use Fire on mine and it’s awesome. :P Might get nerfed with the AOE changes though.

Fire all the way on shortbow. Seeing your sigil of air trigger on an off target from a trick shot bounce feels real bad; short bow is ideal for AoE situations and the sigil of fire excels in those same situations. It’s the easiest sigil choice of any thief set.
