Poor excuse. Creating a skill that's only useful if your other two more powerful skills with pretty much the same functionality is fairly pointless.
Bring [Distracting Shot] and/or [Savage Shot] if you want to be useful.
[Hunter's Shot] is more useful than Powershot - use that if you want another 1 sec attack skill.

More to the point: use that if you want ANY 1s attack skill.

Back on powershot, maybe add something like "this skill has a +10-50% chance to critical" simply adding more power is boring, but this might be an interesting new mechanic for rangers.

something like this would be nice:

change functionality to "deals +5...17...20 damage. inflicts cracked armor and bleeding (5...17...20 seconds) if your target is knocked down."

or maybe on a critical instead of knocked down, or something.

Wasn't it also a skill either granted immediately to new Rangers, or in a VERY early quest in Prophecies?

Shortly after the Searing, if you do the (optional) quest, Power Shot is the reward for the first (primary) profession quests in Prophecies.
