<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div><br /> == &lt;!-- DaKillaOfHell --&gt; Bows as ranged weapons -- 13:06, 14 June 2009 (UTC) ==<br /> ;Issue<br /> : &lt;!-- To be precise, the Bows are the most useless weapons in the game for every Ranger. The attack speed of all Bows is outscored by every other weapon, even spears. Thats why Rangers are using other weapons like scythes, hammers etc. because the skills are better, cheaper with expertise and far better to use than the bow. Just in GvG, bows are used but not as damage. Look at the warriors, they do mostly of the damage while rangers are a) supporters with conditions or b) interrupter. In PvE they are outscored by Assassins in Damage+IAS, which makes them almost useless.--&gt;<br /> ; Suggestion<br /> : &lt;!-- Make the bow more viable. For example, change expertise to give rangers an edge in using a bow. An example could be: For each rank of Expertise, the Energy cost of all of your attacks, Rituals, touch skills and Rangers skills are decreased by 4%. For every Rank in Expertise, the attack speed of bows is increased by x%. Several skills, especially those related to Energy costs and skill recharge times, become more effective with higher Expertise.<br /> <br /> This would make the bow a more useable weapon and strenghten the role of primary rangers. --&gt;</div>
