Fan shot is completly useless now that it attacks multiple targets at once, Stopping shot is so much more better since It has pretty much no delay for me, It does more dmg, and it only attacks one target at the same time, it doesnt get a whole group of things chasing after you. You guys need to fix fan shot so it only attacks 1 target at once.





I love the new Fan Shot!


Especially in a group decision, I feel very valuable now - I can move around and hit all opponents, cutting shot long, deadly fights. Sure, they might aggro on me, but it's worth chancing it because I may kill all of them before they can kill me. And anyway, I almost always group with a Doctor or a Combat Medic, and they treat me right.


Fan Shot = one of the greatest contributions you can offer your group.

As people have said in other threads, the TC has Fan Shot back to what it was - single-target-only.

You can thank all the anti AoE whiners for that.

Fan shot is completely useless? Do you not PvP? Its incredibly useful.

Why would you want to kill one mob at a time when it's more satisfying to kill a whole bunch of mobs at the same time?

Insane. I feel sorry for the ones that tries to keep their classes overpowered by denying things getting out of hand. Is it so hard to admit when something is too good? Sure there are times when Fanshot isn't really great because of it adding opponents (in both PvP and PvE), but that's just you being a loon for not switching to another special move.

I agree with the post. Check out your combat spam. Unless that is bugged, you aren't doing the damage you think you are.

Combat Spam doesn't mean crap to me, what counts are the numbers I see floating overhead of my opponents. In that regard fan shot is very effective.

Well, and again...


It might be effective, but they're still nerfing it. We're back to Bleed-bleed-bodyshot2'ing everything again as our best...
