Sometimes i play glint challenge and i am fascinated by splinter shot.
It is a not a kind of superpower skills. It seam a normal skills like volley.
It's a common ranger skills that is not implemented.
Why?

PS
i mean monster skill not normal splinter shot

EDIT: Did not see the PS from the OP referring to the Monster Skill.

If you're asking why this skill isn't usable by players, it's because it was implemented as a monster skill. No idea why they didn't just make it a regular skill, but whatever.

I think I much rather would have had the monster skill version than what we have available to us now.

The one we have now isn't great, but there are already 3 skills like the monster version. Why add a 4th?

Why? The one we have now is called "Volley" and it's damage spread is non-conditional, has higher +dmg, costs less energy and has a faster recharge

People like this need to be perma muted...THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH MORE USEABLE SKILLS,IF YOU LIKE USING WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE STICK TO IT AND STOP WHINING,seriously stfu and go back to reminiscing about the 'good ol' pug days'.

Anyway,yeh either have the destroyer one or use the version suggested on wiki's(unofficial ofc) discussion page.

This version of the skill is actually the older version of Splinter Shot, originally intended for inclusion as a normal skill in Prophecies.

both versions suck tho imo

This is an aoe bow attack that doesn't remove preparations. The only bow attacks that are currently like this are Incendiary Arrows (elite

) and our version of Splinter Shot (one of the worst skills in the game

). This would act as a non-elite version of IA, like Volley is to Barrage. It would be a nice replacement for Splinter Shot IMO.
