We may have strong ones, but what about all the Cool Weaponskills?
We honestly dont have any! Sure we shoot stuff and it does a lot of damage, but we dont have any weapon skill that looks Genuinely really cool. If I had to decide, Heavy and Blast are the only weapon skills where we have some actual movement other than shooting.

So I ask you RNGs and anyone else for input on what you think would be a possible weaponskill that we could at least show boat with.

And idea that has been in my head for a while was one where we could leap into the air and rain down arrows with an area effect. It would use ammo based on the amount of enemies in the area, so lets say you linked 10 Orcs, you would shoot off 10 Arrows, etc. Thoughts, opinons, post !

Emp arrow looks better then side for me, though it depends how you look at it.

Emp is like a laser, and even a laser sound effect. It loose pretty kewl if you're doing it from melee ranger, because the light goes through the monster, like a pierce effect.

Of course I find it funny when a hume ranger does it and missess. It's like pointing an arrow at the monster's eye at point blank, and missing.

Blast Shot (with a gun) is one of the best looking WS, IMO. How can you not like a pistol whip followed by a point-blank barrel of lead to the face?

Detonator looks pretty cool, also. Too bad that Blast Shot and Detonator are among the most useless of our WS.

If Blast Shot and Detonator merely did the same damage as Heavy Shot, then we could have an excuse to use them. But they don't, so we don't.

Too bad... Blast Shot -> Slug Shot -> Detonator would be a pretty sweet looking way to make Light.
