No. If you don't like the downside to the set then don't use it instead of asking for a ridiculous buff. If that happens then that set would need a CD like every other set in the game that either has a conditional damaging effect or a buff.

If anything, that set is already strong on live. Don't even try the vacuum arguments because they won't work.

NO.

What vacuum arguments? 4 from 5 meta specs have powerful or cheap universal purge which renders whole set+ability absolutely useless. Yeah it is powerful (but not OP) against DK, sorc, NB. It's ok against templar (because ritual is expensive). But against necro or warden master's bow is just a waste. Warden overall makes bow useless for solo playing... i don't care much about snipe but fact that the only viable bow set is neutered by free purge is just stupid. But ok, enjoy 2H/S&B and probably 2H/BRP next patch meta.
Medieval fantasy game without bow, kewl.

I would never kick someone for using a bow build in PVE. I would, however, potentially kick someone for being absolutely horrible and unable to progress through the current dungeon, regardless of the build they are using. It's not about what weapon you're using. It's about how effective you are with that weapon. If you're blaming your constant kicks on your weapon choices, you may need to dig a little deeper to see the real issue.

So Bows are on same level as magica randged or stamina mele builds? despite bow builds is notyou my main they should be valiable to ALL content include All VET Trials and not be 20% behind in dps, becuase there is simply not reason to have thing like that.

There's a perfectly good reason ranged is lower than melee--fighting from range SHOULD be a bit weaker than melee range. And if you're good at bow/bow, it IS viable for vet stuff. But, as always, you gotta be able to pull it off.

I do not have and understand melee shoud be stronger but a bit my experience is 27% others around 25% it is simply not a bit ..
