Have a generic stamina and magic gap closer;
The double activation from the crossbow skill is wonky, unreliable, and to be honest just plain broken.
I can literally activate the skill charge a full bow heavy attack and use the skill again and have it activate the gap closing mechanic. Which I reported in test when the change was first out on test.
There are weapons DW, Bow, and both varieties of staffs that do not have gap closers as well as some classes that have magic based gap closers but not stamina gap closer and one that has both.
And while I understand and appreciate creating an environment where classes and weapons play differently I also believe every class and combination should have access to such an important utility ability as gap closing.
If you wanted to play a stamina DW and Bow Templar you should be able have access to a working gap closer skill for PVP or PVE when needed.

Totalitarian✭✭✭✭✭All classes have access to a hard or soft gap closer.
Templars have their Spear Charge
NBs have Teleport Strike
DKs have Dragon Leap
Sorcerers have Bolt Escape
Sure, Dks and Sorcerers have ones that are a bit wonky in that they are either not directly gap closers, or are ultimates, but they still have them. In addition, all stamina classes have access to 2 gap closers, one with Two Handed, the other with S&B.
Next, not every weapon needs a gap closer. There is really no reason for a ranged weapon (Bow, Destruction Staff, and Restoration Staff) to have a gap closer, because they're ranged weapons. The purpose of a ranged weapon is to stay at range, not charge into the middle of a battle.
That being said, Dual Wield lacks a gap closer, despite being melee. But also, we can't have Dual Wield being a weapon line that brings everything (Two Handed fills that role).PC NA CP 531+

Of the classes only 1 has a stamina gap closer.
1 can't decide iif it's a gal closer or a pull and
1 is a teleport
I would agree on the ranged weapons except they attempted a generic stamina gap closer with the crossbow skill morph which is a ranged attack (not so much a ranged weapon line)
You should have the option should you choose, it doesn't have to be the best option IMO it doesn't even need to do damage just provide the utility.
