I need a suggestion for the emanagement. &mdash;Blastedt&mdash; 15:32, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Would probably use a zealous bow string, this would probably be good in AB. &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 15:35, 29 January 2007 (CST)

uh, barrage has a 1 sec recharge, bows have a 2-2.7 sec refire rate, its a do-nothing build &mdash; Skuld 15:35, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * I saw somewhere barrage was 1 sec cast :P &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 15:37, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Skuld is right, what's the point? You have used Barrage before and know how it works, right...? -.- Entropy 18:55, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * No, I haven't :P &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 19:00, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Oh, the point is barrage spam coordinated every minute or so, then one interrupts, the other does dmg, then when they get below 50% needling shot spam. &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 19:00, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * >< Well see...Barrage recharges in 1 second, and bows fire once per 2-2.7 seconds as Skuld said. Hence, there is no point in Echo'ing Barrage. It's already spammable and having another copy wouldn't do any good. Interrupt builds don't need Echo in them; Needling Shot is very poor DPS without more buffs to you. You have Favorable Winds, but not Read the Wind or Winnowing (the two most common other arrow buffs). Still not much good here. I'd rather a Flame Barrager and a CG+PS ranger over this combo.

 * I read somewhere it takes 1 sec to cast, so you can alternate with no downtime ? &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 19:07, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * That look a tad better? &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 19:09, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * There is a slight delay because Barrage's recharge time restarts when you fire it, not when you activate it. You'll notice that if you use a bow like Drago's, your ranger will re-ready the bow, and you'll see a slight animation change. Echo solves the problem here, but not sure if it's needed, especially if you follow up barrage immediately with an interrupt. &mdash; Rapta  [[image:Rapta_Icon1.gif|19px]] (talk|contribs) 19:10, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Also, barrage spam does lotsa dmg to clustered, and its just plain good :P &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 19:11, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Yep, better now though I'm still questioning its overall usefulness... Entropy 19:16, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Wanna test this someday in AB? &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 19:18, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Eh, I don't have an alliance, nor do I have the skills. Entropy 19:21, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Dont need an alliance to AB :P &mdash;[[Image:BlastedtSigleft.jpg]]Blastedt[[Image:BlastedtSigright.jpg]]&mdash; 19:39, 29 January 2007 (CST)
 * Barrage in AB? O_o &mdash; Rapta  [[image:Rapta_Icon1.gif|19px]] (talk|contribs) 23:35, 29 January 2007 (CST)

There isn't really a point in echoing barrage, but even if there were, you can't use Read the Wind with Barrage. Barrage removed preparations. -- (talk) 07:02, 30 January 2007 (CST)
