Hitting Harder in Heroics and Epics
As we said in Goal #2, we want to increase Bow damage in Heroics with not just attack speed, but a little extra power. The DEX on bows alone isn't reaching that height yet (especially as that doesn't gain anything on some existing builds), so:
- Point Blank Shot now also adds "When using a Longbow or Shortbow, you gain +1 Critical Multiplier on a roll of 19-20".
As we said in Goal #3, we want to increase Bow damage for top-end bow builds. Right now, that looks like this:
- Combat Archery now also grants +1 Critical Threat Range with Longbows and Shortbows.
- Combat Archery's DEX requirement is now 17 (was 21).
- This should help some builds that need to split Ability Score increases to reach this essential feat.
