Thank you SE but you've still have yet to add ammo meter. :( I hate when I use barrage and fire to only find out I had 1/2 arrows left.

They should be ashamed of that update.

They should do something about RNGs throwing more than 50 RACC of gear with 8/8 marksmenship merits+food, and you still miss a WS as a tarutaru.

Now that's need an update.

100% - 95% = 5%

Unless you want them to complete change the fundamentals off hit rate then you will still miss.

I agree with all of this. Now RDM just needs another update and I'll know SE is really looking out for me and all my jobs D:

Composure is all the update RDM needs =/ Seriously, what more do you want for it? Tier IV spells? lol

Aw damn, but my velocity shot macro is in the same button as my hasso macro because they both were 5 mins. Someone increase hasso to 2 hours, too!

No I want to buff better. Highest enhancing skill in the game... like make more the buffs dependent on skill or something.

The rng update looks rather mild. Either smn is going to get a few weak updates or they are waiting to drop the big news (new avatars) for the last announcement before the update.

Doesn't change much, you could already keep velocity shot up full time if you paid attention to your recast.


Precisely... So are they going to make it like Composure? Ultra long duration but short recast? What I find most annoying about Velocity Shot is when it's dispelled in Dynamis or something just as you put it up.


Yes. I actually would rather this just be a Job Trait that's fully active instead of an ability, but for meripo rangers that have multi-hit weapons (/drewl) this could be somewhat of a setback. So Kudos to SE, you win my heart this round.

Unlimited Shot:
Once activated, this ability will remain in effect until you successfully hit your mark.


That's neat, though.

^ very yesh.

Camouflage:
Rangers with this ability in effect will incur less enmity for ranged attacks. There will be a chance that the ability remains in effect even after a ranged attack, depending on your position relative to your target.


Cool story, bro.

story?

Less enmity will be incurred the further away you are from the target of your ranged attacks.


That seems to be the way it works anyway, as ranged attacks are generaly weaker. However, that's good all the same.


No not really, you acrew more dmg the farther away you are therefore more enmity. Is cool now cause we can blast more on HNMs/Kings for less enmity.

Damage messages displayed after a successful ranged attack will indicate the effectiveness of the attack, allowing for players to better gauge their positioning. Critical hit and missed attack messages will remain unchanged.


That will prove useful for those who aren't running the distance plugin and aren't quite sure they're at "the sweet spot"

Nice I get to be a tid bit lazier o.o;

Anyway as to go with the comment about feeling like you loose accuracy when you use Barrage and Sharp Shot together. Well I've always felt that too. Oddly enough though that's only if I use Sharp Short BEFORE Barrage. Must just be a fluke though, right? I want some more cool THF stuffs, and also the long sought after Avatars! Damn it. SE can you at least pretend that you still care about FFXI? o.o SortaKindaMaybe, thanks!

I dunno...I'm a RNG and I'm not quite that impressed with these updates. Velocity Shot thing is nice but it could already be fulltimed. Just makes us have to press it less.

They should make it so arrows auto load or whatever as long as they're not quivered. Kinda like shihei usage ya know?

I'm the source. I do this every time because people still have that lingering fear in the back of their minds that SAM will be buffed AGAIN.
I'd like a MNK update >_>

Thats almost balanced enough to be plausible. You need to throw in zanshin hits have 100% acc yeah thats a good one ;)
