Anyone who's played PvP since Factions knows the horror of trying to fight a Rit hiding inside a mob of Spirits that inflict KD, Blindness, and way too much damage while healing the Rit's whole party and reducing the damage they all take.
spirits are fine.
the -50HP and burning nerf wasn't enough for you?

anyway -
just issuing the main things i want
Buffs:
Wastrel's Collapse - this skill has been underpowered long enough,by far.
infact i think the general sin line needs to buff the USELESS skills.
Nerfs:
overpowered sin skills - infact sin is on a bit of both for me, remove the "hi bye lolowned!" and bring in the "gg, skills!" on them...mainly deadly paradox - just ETHER RENEWAL this skill,enough said!

Sprint is much faster than Enraging Charge and Charge is 33% now don't go by these out of date skill pins.

Buff:
- Light of Deliverance cast time (which wasn't the problem)

Nerf:
- Light of Deliverance range (which was the problem)


Restore the 1 second cast and then give it the Aegis treatment in regards to its range.

How is Sprint faster than Enraging Charge? They both are at 25% speed movement.

Buff: Hundred Blades (Not sure if its better than Sun and Moon Slash or not)
Nerf: Dancing Daggers (Stop the signet spiker sins...)

Buff:
[skill]Flashing Blades[/skill]
[skill]Hidden Caltrops[/skill]
[skill]Seeping Wound[/skill]
[skill]Hundred Blades[/skill]

General Buff:
Rune of Clarity
Rune of Restoration
Rune of Purity
Rune of Recovery
Rune of Absorption

Flashing Blades: Elite Stance. For 5...25 seconds, you have a 50% chance to block incoming attacks while attacking and attack 25%
faster.

Hidden Caltrops: Elite Hex Spell. For 20 seconds, the next time target foe takes damage while moving, this Hex ends and you shadow step to target foe. When Hidden Caltrops ends, target foe takes 15...63 damage and is Crippled for 5...17 seconds.

Seeping Wound: Elite Hex Spell. For 5...17 seconds, if target foe is suffering from Bleeding or Poison, that foe suffers -1...3 Health degeneration. Every 3 seconds, if target foe is moving that foe suffers an additional -1 health degeneration for the remainder of Seeping Wound's duration.

Swing twice at target foe and foes adjacent to your target. This attack cannot be blocked.

Rune of Clarity, Recovery, Restoration, Purity all are 20% right now, increase that to 33%.
Rune of Absorption return to -3 all damage, or have +5 global armor bonus.

Right up your alley.

I agree with Rahja on most of those, but the two I'd like to see buffed most would be:
Mirror of Ice
Amity
Those two skills absolutely fail, so it would be interesting to see them improved enough to be usable.

To nerf:
Dancing Daggers
Shadow Form
Dancing Daggers to nerf the stupid Deadly Paradox sins, and Shadow Form for the reasons mentioned above.

General Buff:
The PBAoE skills that have the annoyingly long aftercast delay. Seriously, 1.75 seconds? Why do they have such a long delay?

General Nerf:
Fire Magic. Let's bring some of those other elements into the spotlight.

Edit @ Terraban:
Oh, I know. I use Water more often than not; I only use Fire when it fits best. Be nice to remove those who do swear by Fire, though. :P

People do use other elements. Only bad players swear by Fire and only Fire.

i know what you mean, but 25energy is alot to pay for it... make recharge longer and drop energy charge? maybe to 15 energy with a 10sec recharge?

"Pre-nerf" is incorrect. It's pre-buff.

Nerf Savage and Distracting shot. Add 3-5s recharge so Rangers now have to think instead of mindless button mashing.

umm yes...people aren't using skills every 5 seconds >.>
WRONG
The amount of freaking preperation for this skill to work is ridiculous.
Balth'z pendulum isn't all that bad
5 energy 1/4 cast 5 recharge pretty damn high recharge?
With how frequent KD's were becoming last month with Sin spikes this 1 skill could of really weakened Sin Spikes and ShockAXE and Gale eles.
It's not a great elite, as its a bit luck oriented, but it works and thus it doesnt suck.
Unless your running Black out....(which wtf is a sin running black out?) this skill sucks and would suck even if you were using black out.

Anyways

PowerShot

Dual Shot
Pre. Rangers don't have that much in expertise yet.

Belly Smash 6a or 9a is to much for a pre Warrior to build up it is the only hammer skill in pre.

I always thought double shot or power shout should be 5 energy.
