    Ranger WS

    I've always found this rather odd and I'm not sure what other people think about it but when it comes to firing off Ranger's WS i find it infuriating I have to draw my weapon(s) to do so... I don't have to draw them to do a Ranged Attack so why should i to send off a ranged weaponskill?

    Just a random thought i had and it might possibly be just me but it would save us rangers some time if we didn't have to and we could just macro a ws to fire off straight the way

    It would be nice if we didn't have to be engaged to fire ranged weapon skills. The number of times that I have failed to WS on a mob because I was not engaged (and the mob is dying fast and is dead by the time i do engage) drives me nuts (mostly because I also play COR).

    i guess the argument is that all other jobs have to engage to WS, so why not ranger?

    But I agree that it is an issue. I used to have a /attack line in my WS macros until I ran out of macro space with gear swaps. still slowed the whole process down.

    Would be nice if they added more macro lines so we could use them properly instead of people using 3rd party programs.

    Especially for those of us using XBox.

    your lucky, a lot of my SCH is 3/3 or 2>3>3

    When FFXI is back up I need to redo rng macros, make sure AF+1 hands are properly macroed and such

    Just like any good suggestions in the RDM thread get applied to SCH.
