    If it turns our shots into a channeled ability (which is why the *holds arrow at quiver* animation is for), it'd need to some clunkiness with bloodletter procs.

    Outside of the trade-off of mobility for increased oomph(which i might add is used completely at the discretion of the player-don't like it, don't use it) don't see one from the revised description given thus far.

    Bloodletter has always been instant. It's when the reset occurs mid cast that becomes clunky.

    And I hope I'm really not the only one that gets annoyed by the fact that we use a song to go into the channeled stance. Every time I look at the demo it just doesn't mesh well with bard's animations, not even the song itself has a proper audio transition now that I listen to it e.e

    That generalization though, those same bards probably aren't even in this thread. Granted I'm one of them, I just don't like how it was presented (through the use of a song and disabling auto attacks,)
