Kiting: Is it possible?

level 1 arctic armour combined with duration is very strong on many occasions against mele as a caster, the chill is not dispellable (practically speaking) and is not based on your damage and best of all... it is almost free

Edit: It is also a very rage inducing skill when combined with high level 20q temp chain vs those who dont bother getting dispel flasks.

Curse temp-> run in tight circles around your newb enemy-> read local pvp chat and laugh

Ah yeah I havn't pvped on an archer since this was introduced. Ironically it will actually make things harder for my caster, because the biggest problem for my caster is melee kiting me. Not being able to catch kiting melee is the only reason they can beat me.

The icetrail is not that long that it should pose any issues for a caster to get in cast range of a mele.

Anyway, you should try it... aux gets a bit annoyed about that skill sometimes, that means it is an extremely good skill lol.

I doubt anyone wants Guided Arrow to be introduced, but I think slightly larger arenas, farther arrow travel, and the addition of an escape skill usable with a bow would help a lot.

Yeah escape with bow very needed, long time ago i suggested teleport arrow.
Not sure about guided arrow with RT or lioneye its can be very op, but bow users need good solotarget skill based on phys damage(not all plays ele builds), now we have only 1 choice frenzy, and it have crazy manacost. On my bow ranger(this char on other account ykyshaeq2) i have 650 manapull and manaleech support linked to frenzy+leech from gear and cant sustain mana in pvp with it cuz low damage and high atack speed. While my 2h staff ranger with same manapull can spam skills and having full mana all time with only 2% manaleech on 1 ring...

You can do pretty well with bow in pvp. You just need to look wider of all opportunities and tips and tricks. You need to grab Bear trap, Temporal chains and ranged attack totem. Place traps and totem to hit enemy player and slow him with chains. You can do that with any class.:)

I adress this in the post. Enemies will use bear trap as much as you, and it hurts bow users more than others because bow users dont have a way to get out of it.

Chains will be on you as well as the enemy, obviously.

You can escape bear traps using whirling blades and weapon swap.
