When you turn on an ammo power (Fire, Ice, & Poison) you have to wait nearly ten seconds to cancel the ability. Usually I want to turn off the ability after I hit the target the first time, because the effects usually don't seem to reapply or compound (which is an interesting idea). Meanwhile each arrow drains my mana.

Maybe. In the case of ice arrow though, you can keep reapplying the slow. Not a bad idea, the mana drain can get really frustrating if you want to switch from ice to poison or vice versa.

You can immediately switch between different types of arrows, just not immediately cancel the current arrow type.

Is the issue the cooldown, or what?

I agree, you should be allowed to turn off the ice/fire/poison arrow. and yes, it's a cooldown issue kainzo. it's weird because cooldown usually prevents the user from using the skill again, where in the case of a ranger, the cooldown prevents the user from firing regular arrows again for 10 seconds or so
