The cost of arrows is really the least of my worries from these early "fix" reports . . .

Of course not. But clearly, the fact that other classes can use bows means they have the same arrow costs as rangers.

Nor should you accept it, and as for the "you should have assumed..." comment it was more directed at anyone who would have read your post and not thought about it, not directly at you.

True on the woodworker aspect as well
the buff is nice but shadowed by the proc rate mess.

Things that I find funny:

1. I was expecting the group focus aim buff to have crit on it. It does not. No raid leader is going to slot a ranger because of a 15s 25% hit bonus buff, especially since they're boosting orange hit rates anyways. Wasn't the whole point of this change to give a raid leader a reason to want a ranger besides just straight DPS? Not gonna work. Add spell + melee crit please.

2. The proc rate nerf was specifically designed to nerf rangers while leaving melee classes untouched. Does anyone remember which class Aeralik plays?

No, I don't want to betray. I WANT to play my ranger and have her be as effective as any melee DPS class. Which is the way it should be.

I don't know what to think. They have always in the past nerfed too hard, but at least when they nerfed folks, it was overpowered classes. How does parsing below the guild assassin make us overpowered??

I have never in my 3 plus years considered betraying to assassin before, but if this goes through, i may just give up- rangers dont appear to be meant to be a viable class.

There is something wrong when the guy who is looking at class balance for rangers plays an assassin. I dont see any way that there isnt class bias here.

Cancel don't betray.

Betraying only adds fuel to Aeralik's fire.

I mean, is it supposed to be a coincidence that he lowered the normalization rate to 5.33? Just low enough to fuck rangers but leave every assassin with two 4s delays untouched? Seriously, what a douchebag.
