If you think about Quick Shot, it costs 5 mana and only does 1 shot whereas Read the Wind does exactly the same thing for 5 mana and lasts like 20 seconds... It's like the devs were drunk when they made Quick Shot.
Quick shot + Choking gas/Incendiary arrow can be quite good.
Another one I find barely better than Unyielding aura is Lightning surge...pitifully weak for an elite that cause exhaustion, 10 energy, and has a delay?!
