[Job Adjustmentｓ Manifesto] RNG

[esoR]

Dead Aim works perfectly fine with Heavy Shot, that's for sure. I have annihilator so I'm not sure if you're referring to jishnu's?

Anyway, the real problem with ranger is the delay in between ranged attacks (the delay between shots, not the actual shooting). Remove that and we'll be all set. Thanks!

Quick Edit: Perhaps your critical damage+ is already capped? It's quite easy to cap it inside abyssea with just RR and some critical damage gear (RR + DA is +70% out of a possible +100%).

atleast for jishnu's and arching arrow, its plain to see that dead aim dosen't effect ws. day 1 when we got dead aim, did some ws, and ther was no difference in the dmg before. (40% crit dmg should show a signifigant boost in dmg) try a ws in abyssea without RR/SS then try it with. thats the dmg increase dead aim should give, and it doesnt. or someone can show you the formula and expected dmg vs actual.

Dead aim doesn't work on heavy shot

There's no ammo on the AH because RNG is a dead job. Fix RNG and the ammo shortage will correct itself.

RNG isnt a dead job by any means. I sometimes go as a naked RNG in tahronghi or another area to widescan the NM location!

I'll see your naked ranger ad raise you my naked beast with a pet that solos the mob without my even staying in damage range

Ranger Improvements:

We currently have no plans of adding an ability that resets hate for ranger. We suggest forming a party with a job that can control hate, such as thief, to get around this issue.

***If this is the direction the design team wants to go please have them consider giving Camouflage a Static duration. Even a 1min duration would be MUCH better then the random duration it currently has.

I would like Rapid Shot to be activated every time.

This will be very difficult, since Snapshot is a trait that can be enhanced to further reduces the time in between ranged attacks, and these two would become very similar.

***A 100% chance to Rapid shot would be way too strong. However, Rapid Shot atm only has a 5-10% chance to even proc. Since it seems there are no plans to add snapshot to haste,haste samba, or march songs consider adding a plus Rapid Shot to the new Subtle Blow JA (maybe +10-15%). This way RNG can compete a little better vs. high haste situations but still has a timer to balance out the extra damage.

Eagle Eye Shot has the advantage of having high accuracy, but we are looking into adding additional benefits. We think it will be best if we can add some kind of benefits other than simply yielding high damage.

***Consider having Eagle Eye Shot add an Enmity Suppression for the next 30 seconds. A RNG could then go all out with what they have but they are not gaining nor losing Enmity.

Lastly, I know it's not mentioned in the Manifesto, but there really is a major ammo issue for both RNG and COR as mentioned a few times on both forums. The design team should look into adding more ways to obtain ammo whether it's buying the ammo from a NPC or adding the synthesis materials to a NPC.

The fact they replied to some random point on Blast Shot but ignored the whole ammo issue is completely uunacceptable.

How to fix RNG forever:

Make Haste, March, and Hasso affect the delay of ranged attacks, along with capping at 80% along with EVERY OTHER PHYSICAL DAMAGE DEALER?

How is this unbalanced, since everyone else has it?

At least give BRD a song that reduces the delay of ranged attacks... or SCH a spell that does so...

[Feliciaa]

Haste, march, and hasso should just have snap shot added to them. Rng is not the super dd it was pre ranged attack nerf so no idea why they can't use them.

[Leonlionheart]

Or, similar to Hasso's STR increase works, increase the potency of Velocity Shot's snap shot per x amount of levels.

45: 10%
55: 12%
65: 14%
75: 16%
85: 18%
95: 20%

There. I fixed it for you SE.
