I think what they meant was the delay between finishing a ranged attack and then taking another action such as, performing a weaponskill or using an item.

Basically same thing considering the delay between shots + delay of weapon = final delay. -50% delay off either one is very cool.

It would be nice to have either. I'm sure I'm not the only person who spams the ***out of their WS macro after you fire the bullet that puts you over 100 TP.

Basically the time it takes you to recover from a ranged attack is going to be reduced by 50%. Its a nice tweak.

Yeah, the exact amount is kind of unclear. First they said "up to 50%" then later "at least 50%"

Honestly the AH price is waaaaaay more than you'd actually spend if you made your own. I have synergy levelled, and cloth, so i usually pay someone just to join pt for a few, and i make my own. At 80 synergy and sunthing atthe right time you can hq adaman bullets and gargoulle arrows at a 50% hq rate. Figuring in paying someone to sit in pt, paying the engineer fo fewell, an materials, i can make garg arrows for about 3-5k per stack, which is about 90% cheaper than AH.

Adaman bullets are still kinda costly, but i don't tp in those as of now, mainly bc i haven't finished the last stage on my gun. But same thing, you can make adaman bullets for about 25% of ah cost if you do your own synergy.

The specific verbiage they used in the live stream was at least 50% this, even if they only half the static delay I cannot wait.

Lol was messing around with a Loxley bow. It fires the arrow off before you even see the animation of the string being pulled back. I was cracking up. There is almost 0 downtime now once you fire an arrow, I loves it.

I should get on and play around with this. Has been one of the biggest things I hate on ranger delay between WS and your next shot.

Holy sh-- this is amazing. I may consider using RNG in every event now . . . if it weren't for bullet prices.

Really nice being able to use items right after the shot too, or JAs. Nothing like dusty wing spam.

Spent like 400k on RNG tonight doing random VW crap just so I could pew faster . . . I need to go farm some ores.
