Default The new Fragment of the Chime

We got the world-wide disco on this off Sol Ro avatar yesterday.

\aITEM -814032328 451060107:[Fragment of the Tintinnabulum]\/a



aka "Fragment of the Tit"

Why does this item again not proc off bow? Ffs, it's a piece of jewelry and the proc is melee-only....wtf? I realize this particular item is just a copy-paste job from last expansion (and I'm not complaining about that, btw, because it's a sick item), but with all the complaints about stuff not proccing off bow and the recent fix to the reet knight helm, you'd hope that while designing the avatar loot for this expansion, they'd take a moment to realize this effect should be changed to proc off bow. Oh, and before anyone comes in here and says something like it shouldn't proc off bow because rangers can range mobs from outside AE range, just fucking go outside and slam your head in your car door a few times until you realize that rangers have fucking melee CA's, as well as a close-range damage bonus on their epic, not to mention that you can routinely get hit with control effects even from long range in RoK. Please no dumbass arguments against fixing this.

just fix the problems with the class already

Also btw, I'm not meaning to express hostility towards the devs with my original post, but rather towards those on these boards who would make stupid arguments against fixes like this. To the devs, if this is merely an oversight (as I hope it is), please just fix it asap, and if was is a conscious decision to make it melee-only, please stop denying rangers equal access to the things every other scout class gets, because there's really no basis for it.

Rangers are pretty fucking badass on Avatars compared to Assassins.

Do you have a problem with that Azleya? Oh, I didn't think so.

I'm not really sure why that would be the case. I mean I can easily take avatar AE's at point-blank range. If it has to do with damage shields not triggering off bow in some cases, then fine, make them trigger off bow (and also off spells, if you're going to do this) more consistently only once you fix procs to trigger off bow consistently. Furthermore, this issue is completely unrelated to the issue of whether or not this proc should be fixed. If rangers are better than assassins on avatars (which I'm not accepting as true), then do something to make them more comparable that doesn't center around 1 or 2 item drops that also affect class balance on other fights.

Of course its true because of our abysmal hit rates against stupid ass level 88s.

Str imbued rings?

I also don't seem to be missing out on much as far as reactive control effects go, those seem to effect everyone. I get feared, stifled, stunned, etc on several fights from those buffs.

You should be glad Devs forget about your class when they design stuff so you don't have to deal with all the retarded stuff melee does.
