Re: Edl vs Featherdraw what am I missing?

Longshot isn’t a bad skill, it’s just not worth using while hasted which is super unfortunate. Great for gele xtals and great for when you’re not hasted. And it’s even more amazing when you hotswap a gele ring, even an imperial/godly silverweb ring.

Imo it needs the same cast time as double shot, it’s already penalizing enough because of the whole range thing and pin effect in certain situations.

At 50/50 every longshot that hits is a positive dps gain. Even when hasted. Unfortunately on a lot of bosses it has aweful hit rate because physical evasions are dumb

If u cast the right skills at the right time longshot comes off faster. It’s not a glitch or anything but when hasted longshot does seem to come off faster. Mix that with some other skill timings and u can pretty much cut the animation time in half and get right back to autoing. It’s a great dps skill sadly not many rangers utilize it to its fullest

Ive used longshot in the past and liked it quite a lot. Only thing that prevents me from using it is skill points. Still think it needs the same cast time as double shot

what really needs to be done is remove the dumb pinning effect and make it unavoidable. Aka a weaker sneaky attack. If this happened I can guarantee more people would use it and it wouldn’t be broken or overpowered.

depending on the boss I’d use longshot with the skill active
And lose divine autos? nty
I’ve actually tested it quite a bit and I’m doing more damage if I’m casting longshot. And when it crits it’s even better. I also quickswap a royal gele ring for longshot though so that may be why.
maybe worth it for edl quiver but defiantly not the new one

I actually love the pinning effect. Yes, it is horrible when kiting bosses...I've accidentally killed many rogues by not paying enough attention :? but when the boss is being tanked, or you are solo-kiting something, it's really handy. If solo-kiting a boss, and your second bolas misses, you can longshot the mob/boss for just long enough to get the third bolas on (if you are fast). The distance also really isn't a problem...rangers aren't supposed to be right up next to the boss. Just run back a bit and use it (then just stay there).
