The gutted Acid Spray. It can no longer be a spammable ability since the dot always resets when cast and will only tick after 1 second. The dot effect wont do damage until you stop spammin it. Why? So dumb....

    for real. I always play bow in elder scrolls games, and i know there are many other like me out there. By no means is bow meta, why would they nerf something that is already not optimal? Snipe has also been gutted to be very underwhelming. What's the point of running bow?

    Yeah just did a search and saw you post in the PTS forum with no response. Thanks for you effort. Unfortunately it was disregarded.

    Put it to a poll, maybe most prefer the DoT refreshes and you miss a tick when spamming rather than not refreshing until expiration.

    Even if you make a poll with this obvious mistake, it wont get much attention because nobody plays bows.

    Its sad

    It got nerfed due to it being oppressive in PvP. I am not sure the nerf was the right fix, but this is the reason.

    Since it's an intended change, then buff Bombard or change some other skill or passives to give bow an actual intended aoe spammable.
    Simple enough, and should have happened at the same time.
