Talk:Splinter Shot

Is the 2 stats on the chart reversed? It just doesn't look right, and since FPE is over, I can't check on it.
 * Checked from a screenshot. The description is correct and the table is wrong. 06:50, 28 March 2006 (CST)

Does splinter shot hurt the one that blocks it also, or does it just hurt those adjacent?
 * Yes, it hurts the person who blocked it. --KittySoft 03:13, 15 July 2006 (CDT)

After buying and testing this skill, I have learned that it does *NOT* damage the target that blocks it. It *ONLY* damages foes adjacent to your target when blocked.

But do any preperations affect ALL adjacent foes? Kiteeye 22:40, 17 September 2006 (CDT)

lol? is there any real use of this skill?

Well. it des deal a decent amount of + damage, and against something like Whirling Defense may be good for damaging many foes, but I do have to admit, from what I've seen in Echovald, this skill blows :P --Gimmethegepgun 11:24, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

The additional damage isn't enhanced with preparations.The Hobo 17:52, 28 December 2006 (CST)
 * I feel like this kill could really do well if it met the right conditions. I'm thinking of looking around for an Aegis loving monk, or a gladz defense warrior that will end up killing their friends rather than helping them.Dark0805 11:49, 28 February 2007 (CST)

other suggestion: "If you fail to hit, all foes adjacent to your target take 5...53 damage" 12 July 2007

GW:EN change?
The Destroyers use a waaaay better skill with the same name. It goes like this: If Spliter Shot hits, it ricochets to up to 2 nearby foes. Splinter Shot strikes for +1...11 damage.

I've seen destroyers use that as well. IMO they should just change the version of splinter shot players get to be the same as the version used by destroyers - Morzan 08:48, 3 September 2007 (CDT)

What's weird is that it follows Marksmanship, unlike other Monster Skills which are unlinked (Except Turtle Shell). - Ayumbhara 20:10, 4 September 2007 (CDT)


 * I did try to cap it, but it didn't even show as if that ranger destroyer boss outside rata sum has the skill, but you can see him using it.--Marth Reynolds 07:21, 7 September 2007 (CDT)
 * My only guess is that maybe Anet made this skill for rangers, but 5/10 GW:EN ranger skills are already marksmanship, so they didnt give it us in the end, but as a side note gave it to destroyer rangers. The name being the same as the current rather rubbish Splinter Shot, however, i have no clue. id guess it would just link back to anet being lazy or oding so to prevent us capping it hehe
