I agree but only with 100% conversion wich doesn't seems to be the case if I understood the guide properly.

Ice shot has built-in 100% conversion. I don't give a rat's ass about the initial arrow, it's all about the secondary cone AoE which is 100% physical to cold conversion.

Once upon a time PvP games had PvP builds with match up specifics, strategy.

[Removed by Support] "how to" on firing through a frost wall for busted mechanic abuse. Anything beyond your gear and standing there is irrelevant.

Now it's just ms paint images of a douche bag's "how to" on firing through a frost wall for busted mechanic abuse. Anything beyond your gear and standing there is irrelevant.

That's the reason, I'm assuming, he ditched burning arrow. Then again, burning arrow is kinda shitty.

muh secondary damage
muh frostwall


Then again, my only l33t strat was shotgunning back in the day.

oh. white, untouched saints of pvp are here. sup guys?

Not much, just enjoying how amazing we are.

Wich only happen if you hit your target through frostwall at mid range, original impact is still 50% cold. That's why I said long range skills like LA/KB will have the advantage has your mid range FW will act against you.

True.
Well, against long range, my 75% increased AoE outranges any LA or EA any day.

Frost wall is not needed to take down other snipers. In an offscreen battle, Ice Shot with 75% aoe wins hands down. Ice shot has scalable range. All arrows have fixed lifespan regardless of arrow-speed, and thus fixed total range.

The only way to extend the range of an arrow skill is Ice Shot, because it's AoE is scalable with increased area. The AoE is an explosion that detonates at the end of the arrow's life. Thus, increasing the Area of Effect substantially increases the final range of the arrow.
