    Since when? arching arrow has always and will always outperform sidewinder, because it is a critical based ws

    sidewinder cannot critical at all. if they are doing the same you are definatly doing something wrong.

    A ranged crit increases your pdif by 25%. Sidewinder's FTP mod is ~40% higher than Arching Arrow's. So without "crit. dmg.+" arching arrow is inferior to sidewinder. Do crit dmg atmas make up the difference?

    Yes, why do you think i'm saying go try it? RR SS and stout arm. assuming you are shotting off the ws in gear like loki's and cavaros mantle. One of the things that made me switch to it before i got jishnu's is that sidewinder has that terrible problem of missing alot and in order to solve that you would need to use drifter since it has ranged accuracy. arching arrow can miss of course but wil be alot more relaible.

    Doesn't dead aim add a bit more too? You can regularly break 4k with Arching Arrow/Heavy Shot.

    edit: on topic, rng needs easier access to ammo and more ammo variation.

    People are saying Dead Aim doesn't apply to WSes.

    Meh, I averaged about 3.5k on most exp mobs in abyssea with Sidewinder, and I had bad/decent gear at that time. So AA vs Sidewinder is pretty moot when Jishnu's outdoes both considerably.
