Maintenance for the week of May 4:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – May 4

Bow skill-line broken? Exploiting? I have no idea.

    It's a short time on your screen because of ability travel time. The fight actually starts with him sniping out of stealth.

    Snipe is 2s - during its travel he is able to fire off (using animation clipping) 2 light attacks and an instant cast. They all arrive on you more or less within 0.5s.

    The solution is purge and stealth as soon as you're marked. Or dodge roll the snipe sound. Sometimes you will just get unlucky.

    OP seems prime for the taking. It doesnt get any better than that.

    You got owned, no exploit there, I could have done the exact same thing, and youd have never had a prayer. Marked on a horse, LAWL.

    Well, aside from the childish comments here, I'll say it again that I was just baiting for the sake of recording. Like I said, I've been literally one-shotted and I thought it wasn't legit because what I saw was ridiculous.

    Let the flaming commence.

    Yup timed attack with travel time followed by quick animation cancelling. Exactly what I do even with my melee sorc using crystal shard and charge. The result is that both hit at the exact same time. Everyone knows crystal shard and morphs do decent damage but an Orc using critical charge does WAY more damage. Both are sweet as honey. A NB still can do more on opener.

    The moment mark is on you is when you should be taking action to defend against the obvious opener you are about to get hit by.
