I have one heck of a time using my longbow when I’m standing on top of a castle wall. Too often when targeting opponents on the ground, I find myself hitting the “top corner” or lip of the wall. I don’t have any problems damaging opponents on the ground when using my mesmer or thief.

Any tips?

Forgive the crude drawing, but try this. Instead of shooting 90 degrees to the wall, shoot at an angle.

Like this…

Like that, instead of…

If that makes any sense.

Right as your shot goes off, jump.
I always do that for F1 and #3 Longbow
