Or is this a case of “it wasn’t on the big day woe is me” bunk?
We got ‘something’. They’re still aware of ranger issues.
Deal with it.
Rangers are such a failure that we can’t even manage a decent troll anymore. We have to make due with this recycled meme vomit.
A ranger is a wasted slot in any group, end of story. Anything they can do, another class will do better. Do yourselves a favor, like I did after they nerfed the SB and gave us an underwater combat patch.
Quit logging into your ranger, create literally any other class, and just slog through the grind to 80 again. Try some of the crafting guides, they will really help you speed your leveling up for a low price.
Sure, it will suck for a while, but by the time you hit 30 your character will be better in almost every way. You won’t want to look back after that point. Then you can just check the big patch notes and feign shock that Rangers remain fundamentally broken and horribly designed.
For those who already have another character and still want to play their ranger in this state, I can’t help you. You are probably the kind of person who would pay someone to kick them in the jewels and I am just not qualified to deal with that kind of sick.
You broke both the bows, promised changes to our weapons after we complained, then only updated the spear gun. Well played and thought out. I mean, to personally post and say you knew Rangers needed help the most, then put out a patch without a single valuable buff to Rangers? You trolled us all really good bro.
Wait…did you honestly post that you think longbow is in a good place, or is a good weapon? Let me check again to be sure, yup, yup you did. I now have zero faith in any of the changes you plan for this class, regardless of how long it takes you to finish them. Your opinion is simply not in the same ballpark as the players, and no amount of second chances are going to fix that.
No one asked for changes overnight, you have had weeks since you promised changes to this over-nerfed class. Stop playing innocent and trying to paint us as unreasonable children for being disappointed with this steaming pile you call patch notes. We expected a small move in the right direction, but you haven’t budged one inch. No, you spent those weeks addressing the super important underwater dps issues we have all been making suggestions about.
So now the time has come to announce the details of the help you promised us, and you do not have a single valuable buff to mention. When we ask why, you spit out this tripe and throw up your hands saying “I can’t fix everything at once people”. No, you cannot and no one asked for that. What you can do is to give priority to important or even relevant changes. You said that you were doing so for Rangers. You lied, plain and simple. Your continued and unapologetic failure at setting reasonable priorities for balance changes speaks volumes about what we can expect in the future.
What did we get in the patch you promised would help out our suffering class? A trap nerf, a buff to warrior bow damage, and a big fat trollface.jpg instead of a single valuable buff.
You win, I won’t play my Ranger anymore. My time is better spent elsewhere.
A lot of good ideas in this thread. I vote for any of them as long as they do the following:
1.) Return the damage of either the longbow or shortbow to a competitive level. We have no competitive ranged DPS. Thieves, Warriors, and Elementalists are all better choices for ranged damage.
2.) Fix the pet’s contribution to our damage, if you can’t fix the pets so they can actually do damage to a human player and not die in 2 seconds, then you need to eliminate the need to have them
3.) Give us at least one valuable utility skill that actually works as intended. It doesn’t have to be as imba as the portal, but something we could actually slot or even use might be innovative.
Thanks, for your words, but until you actually fix the Ranger mine is shelved in favor of a sub-80 alt. It is literally 100% more useful and fun than the current mess you have made of this class.
P.S. If you wanted to fix both bows or give us some sort of viable AOE damage it would be great.
