Guild Wars 2

This would be a great way to bring Acrobatics up to par, bring Ricochet back in that spec, and I suggest to combine Swindler’s Equilibrium with Upper Hand.

This will make room for Ricochet.

ricochet is important for pistols yes, but it’s still pretty useless without opportunist being given back. pistols simply use too much ini for just ricochet alone to survive.

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Guarded_Initiation revmoe this for ricochet

P/p suffers from:

-less initiative regen since the update
-removal of ricochet
-removal of the +10% damage trait
-not having a 2nd melee weaponset if you want to be mobile in PvP.
-not enough accessible defensive capabilities. (high ini costs on interupts and blinds, no stealth on the weaponskills, no mobility on the weaponskills.)

This list is awful even if they add ricochet back. P/P is worse than kitten right now and they nerf it some more. WTF.
