I believe that the ranger skills poison arrow and arrow storm are very overpowered. 1 poison arrow brings me (a wizard) down to around half health. That is alot of damage. I would suggest a slight nerf on this skill's damage or less ticks. Arrow storm i think was a very good idea but could be tweaked slightly to make it more fair. Rangers should need to have a bow to use arrowstorm. Rangers are a class all about precision and arrow storm is the exact opposite. Rangers have the ability to spam arrows and if they are originally off target they can readjust their aim and still deal incredible amounts of damage. I think that a good fix for this would be to make the cursor of the player using arrow storm decrease sensitivity drastically and be slowed. They keep the same amount of damage however the attack requires precision to use instead of spamming. This also prevents them from barrel stuffing people at point blank. This is a great skill for rangers to have and it does great nuke damage and with these changes it would be used at medium range not very close range. Rangers do the most damage at like range by far so they should not also be able to have the mot nuke damage at close range. I think that if one of these (preferably arrow storm) were to be nerfed it would make ranger a much more evenly powered class.
Poison arrow is not "Very" overpowered.
Last time I checked one poison arrow took about 2-3 of my hearts, (don't know if they have made the dmg more lately). If you nerd poison arrow much it will be easier for you as a wizard, but when Mr. Ranger meets a warrior spec he has about nothing to do cause the warrior got much HP.
The Ranger are a rogue spec, rogues are supposed to hit hard and fast, the ranger do that.
The only Difference is that the ranger are best on range combat, you as a wizard got skills that got about the same dog output the poison arrows, but a wizard is not a range fighter so it has to be closer.
About the Arrowstorm.
Arrowstorm is like a Ohh.. Shit skill.
You have to be very close to the target to get to use the arrowstorm, and since you only got one close combat skill and the arrowstorm got a 20sec CD you then need to grab your axe and do less dmg than the rogue path.
My point is.
I don't know the exact dmg of a poison arrow, but at least the way it was early on this map is a good amount (I think), the Arrowstorm is a rangers Ohh Shit skill, or the skill you can use to finish of your targets when they you have fired arrows toward them while they have been running and they have finally caught up.
I am open to replacement of Arrowstorm, BUT
If you want to change Arrowstorm you should change it whit another CLOSE combat skill, because if you remove the only usable close combat skill all rangers will die if they get supprised by a melee spec...
