With the upcoming nerfs on the way, I went ahead and spent almost an entire night on my bow ganker.

✭Omg man that was an incredibly entertaining video XD
I never agreed with snipe damage nerf. It was always the stun from stealth, defile and cloaking away by nightblade that made the skills damage seem too powerful. (oops and the lag)
On a typically build stamina toon with balanced defense, offense and sustain, snipe always hits like a wet noodle.
They should have just completely removed the defile for something else. The same could be said for dark flare, which took a almost double the damage nerf snipe did...on a class that can't just cloak away.
Patch has made me very salty. I was going to play magcro, but after templar nerfs I'm just having nostalgia from patches of old when templar was nerfed needlessly time and time again for years. Summerset era was a decent time for magplar...its a shame they are going back to their previous summerset ways of shitting on templar.
But...awesome video. Thanks for the dark flare homage at the end XD4 -

Thanks man, yeah I had to add dark flare at the end. -37% is a huge nerf.0 -

LoreToo✭✭✭Great vid! But you still can do snipe + ambush + incap, that will work good, so overall dps loss will be around 12% for that combo.
And more of that: what can you do with +5m range? Alot. Try eagle eye for example

darkblue5✭✭✭✭✭What's sorta funny is many few ganks are just a bruised ego (why?) and 40 AP for the Kagrenac's bot role. And yet the ganks are being nerfed.... wait it is because if gankers were able to kill more people then the Necromancer's resurrection ultimate would be indirectly buffed! What a genius move by ZOS to be so subtle and forward thinking in their nerfs to such a powerful ability!2 -

✭Yaaaaasssss OP... Great Vid. I have been turned off by the game since the nerfs were announced, but this video has given me the extra nudge needed to dust off the Gankplar and send him off properly. LET THEM REMEMBER!!!"Stendarr's mercy be upon you, for the vigil has none to spare."3 -

Fully encompassed the issue with Snipe. It really is not too strong on a balanced build. Neither was Dark Flare which was actually stronger than Snipe but didn't have the support of longer range, Cloak invisibility with guaranteed crit.
Curse+Force Pulse weave is far more pressure on a normal build without any of the disadvantages of a cast time.
Combination of Major Defile, range, Cloak, Minor Berserk, Guaranteed crit allowing full advantage of Shadow mundus, and shade allows for a full glass cannon. You can do Snipe ganking on non NBs but not with the same effectiveness.Legendary Archer of ValenwoodBosmer Dragon Knight Archer. XBox One. (Flawless Conqueror Bow/Bow)Bosmer Nightblade Archer.

Were you not entertained? That guaranteed crit doesn't seem to work on guards.0
