Ranger SB Nerf: Not 40 milliseconds

Here’s my input-
SB’s are the only reliable main weapon for PvP because the dps for longbow isn’t enough. This nerf leaves rangers outside of PvP almost completely because the one weapon that gave us a chance has been changed. The other skills on SB can’t be really used in combo’s or tactical ways as they are mainly condition skills, so again, I don’t think there should be a reason to “encourage players to not spam 1” because for SB, that was the main source of damage.
LB’s can be good for certain things but they aren’t ment for PvP. I think that’s why a lot of people are upset, because this nerf takes us out of the PvP area’s completely and pretty much makes our class PVE.
Yeah, this is one of the few problems with Rangers but at least you guys are looking into it.

What role(s) does the ranger play in WvWvW?

I use LB and axe/warhorn, sometimes sword/warhorn. Just like the guy above said, rangers do a good job at picking off people because of the range we get. Plus, barraging a whole group of people just makes me happy.

This bums me out a bit. I prefer LB over SB but still use SB for certain things… Pretty much rangers are screwed at PvP until they are updated and on par with the other classes. It was vital to have SB in PvP since the damage output and dps from LB wasn’t reliable. LB is great in WvW but PvP is where SB’s are critical… So hopefully this gets fixed because I really enjoy the class despite a bunch of things that imo, should be fixed. I’ll stick with my ranger for a while longer, and lets just hope they look into these issues.

Q: Would you like to have new bow models implemented, and why.

I think there some really great looking bows, but the legendaries are such a disappointment. I’m not going to bother farming for one anymore because the skins for them both look horrible imo. I know the idea was to probably “think outside the box” and not just add a huge spikey looking bow, but this isn’t what I had in mind. Hopefully in the future, there will be a few more options, but as of now, I’m pretty bummed about the skins.

I’m a girl and hate both of the bows. Personally, I prefer Longbow over Shortbow but unicorns…? Idunno, I expected something pretty epic for the better weapons in the game. These bows would be fun maybe as exotics, but I don’t see these as the best. That’s just my opinion, hopefully there will be more designs in the near future.
