I'm very happy with the range change, but Draining Shot is not a worth while spammable. It does significantly less damage than Crushing Weapon or Cutting Dive. It will be much more functional in PVP, and provided a buff for the Blackrose weapons possibly have a worthwhile dot effect.

Shut your mouth! They gave SS max range? Man they are hitting on most cylinders with this upcoming patch.

Uh.... I always used the Fighter's Guild Silver Shards as a spammable on an archer. Not only does it do a lot more damage and has the full 28 meter range, but it also deals decent AoE damage AND increases your weapon damage while slotted...
Why on nirn would anyone use Draining/Magnum Shot as a spammable?
It's a utility skill... I still love the 28 meter increase cause it stuns. But come on...

He didn't say he doesn't use snipe. He might use it as an opener in PVP, and will look to reapply during a fight when possible.
Anyone stood in a field hitting snipe over and over will be the first one to die.
Exactly. I still use and prioritise snipe. Whenever I open on a target and/or know that I'm safe to do so and target isn't aware.
Don't underestimate the power of Silver Shards, it's a great skill if you incorporate it in the right ways. It's almost like a ranged surprise attack with extra AoE capabilities. AND it shreds WWs (Lethal + Shards combo) and Vamps in PVP.

I see. PvP. I have no input on that but in pve, you don't need 2 spammables and in
if you mean an AOE spammable, acid spray is strictly better, full damage to all and scales with the bow light attack passives.
