Does Ballista ult worth use?

Does Ballista worth use in bow builds? Or it's better to use Ice Comet?

For what? I've seen it used in PvP a bit, but it also locks you into a channel.

No. Rapid Fire and the Toxic Barrage morph are channels. But Ballista isn't.

In my opinion Ballista is a good alternative for a backbar Ult on Bow/Bow setups. I am pretty sure that it scales with Hawk Eye, increasing its damage up to 25%. It is single target, which isn't so great, but the damage is really good. My StamSorc Woodelf gets 106k for 147 Ult, without crits.

Outside of BowBow builds, the usefulness is low.

I don't know about PvP, but it stands to reason, that the damage will be lower and random, since the ballsita decides who it hits.

Thank you for the correction!

Ballista.

ONLY if it scales with Hawk eye, though (and you keep that max stacked), and you're fighting single-target.

Less ult cost, up to 25% increased damage with Hawk Eye, either more likely to crit, or 5% more damage with the bow passive.
