Very logical nerf. Ags 50% spec and hits higher than ballista pre nerf. Ballista 65% spec hits less and gets a nerf genious. Oh great reason "due to price" do you forget that rangers have to use ammo? Which is infinite cost btw to use the weapon oh and dragon javelins are 2.7k ea. Oh i also forgot that each shot the javs disappear. I'm sorry but this was a dumb ass decision.

you people ruined the ballista.. now I'm pissed. This wasn't even f#$kin polled.... I'm quitting now thanks.

Rangers already have garbage defense. Now you just made this melee scape even more. "Who are you really? deep... deep down... far far in... Once you figure that out you will laugh your self Silly!" - Alan Watts.

I honestly must say this is a terrible idea, one of the worst weapon updates in a long time. Not only does the whole community think so, but even non pkers because melle's dps is simply way higher then range anyway, you can swing AGS without spec and hit the new max hit of Heavy Ballista.

Really disappointed, Heavy Ballista was by far most ranger pker's favorite update

I was thinking exactly what other peoples wrote. Increase the requirements and price of the ballista instead of nerfing the ballista. It was weaker than melee god swords before nerf.

Rangers need some end game weps. Not just low - midlevel weps.

You all need to quit crying, ballista was OP to begin with and after that buff we all knew a damage nerf was coming. its not like the ballista is unviable. It was game-breaking content from the beginning and desperately needed to be toned down in every which way possible. the last piece left is to make javelins drop on the ground (but not retrievable by avas as that would just be op lol)

imo if you want to fix the granite maul, then release a range weapon with a spec similar to gmaul. it will "balance" it.

like those new thrown axes could cost 30% spec for an instant hit (so you could get 4 instant hits, but at a lower strength bonus than gmaul, while opening up new combos for the community to play with).
