Future love for xbow?
From a recent TL feedback report for the Armsman, Mythic hinted at some 'new and exciting' stuff for the xbow line.
Not sure what they mean by this but I got some suggestions as to what I would like to see.
Skill point based xbow styles would be nice. Not sure as to what lvl these would come in at but im sure the guys at Mythic can work on the details. for instance...
Something like a stun style would be nice, only low like 3 - 4 seconds, but enough to halt a tank on a cleric/caster type in the heat of an RvR battle (its not hard to imagine that a xbow bolt would stun somebody). This could be at lvl 20 or so.
A big dmg, BT piercing style wouldnt be asking for too much either, after all, we are talking about a heavy bolt here. Maybe lvl 30 for this style.
Finally, a high damage pulling style. This would make Armsmen viable in pulling mobs again in comparision to a pally, as the trade off would be a slighty slower pull for a big damage benefit. Maybe lvl 10 for this style so can be used during lvling.
I Mythic were to do this and if Mythic also do away with double speccing. Armsmen would have the choice of going Pole/2 handed with high Xbow or Pole/2 handed with S+S.
Any thoughts ?

I'll make a point of taking some RvR screenies next time the opotunity arises, incidently I nearly always use thrust damage bolts, not that it makes a huge differance really, but I mostly use my bow when rooted or to slow down skalds and bards.
As for the above post, I don't really agree to be honest. The whole concept of styles with a ranged weapon is kinda silly and we don't want to tread on the toes of real archers either.
The only differance I would like is for range to increase with spec, so people with more in crossbow get a little reward and more utility out of there spec. A maximum of 50 in crossbow should offer the same range as a longbow, with the current range being what it is at 1 spec, the range can scale between those for each point.

rofl, so true.
and the 6 scouts that were stealthed next to u drawing crit-shots that woulda hit said mentalist and his buddies for 500-1000+ all get interrupted, destealthed and stun-nuked or die from the dot too! played!!1
for fucksake if u got no ranged dmg keep off the friggin walls k thx
on the original post tho, yeah i can see xbow arms being a valid and very effective guard bot. no need to leave your client/s to interrupt that caster or healer and u can pump a few bolts out while waiting for the tanks to come
