Guild Wars 2

20% Increase isn’t really the issue. Add a piece as well and it might be more in line. Ricochet was used to try reach targets further in a group of targets and that’s one of the key pieces missing here.

Not to mention, well it was fun to try and bounce shots to your target similar to the way that the axe is for the ranger.

I think with Daredevil coming out they make more sense, and if they get a bump like anet mentioned, who knows?

I play them because they are fun and easy to use. I’ve never stopped even after Rico went bye-bye.

Fingers crossed.

Maybe increase the trait space, for example make minor traits selectable, so other traits can make a comeback, while others that have been baselined will now become optional (to reduce imbalance).

oh wow…. just wow.
somebody hire him already.

Ricochet’s main ability was for a thief to put pressure on multiple targets. P/P was very balanced with that trait. It did enough damage not to be ignored but not so much that everyone cried on the forums about it. Not only that they removed one of the more fun builds to play. Straight up deleted it.

RNG or not, they broke this build. Unfortunately 20% isn’t going to fix it. No other build in the game seems as fun to me and GW2 lost a bit of its soul when they removed this.

No one cares about pistol purity since the only purity it had was the fact that they’ve been awful from the start. It’s such a frustrating excuse, and it makes no sense to me since you’ve already broken that idea of purity with Warrior rifles without batting an eye, as well as Dagger hitting 2 targets. So you don’t even believe your own excuse. What’s wrong with giving a single target weapon a way to aoe? Sounds more like a bug/mechanic fix.

The absence of PP was it’s true purity that kept the rest of the game clean of it’s presence since it never existed among players due to lack of damage, utility and aoe and it popped up more often with that fun trait around. So feel free to stomp all over it’s purity to make it better.

I want my Ricocheting PP back. Hurry up and just do it.
