Engi Rifle 4 Bug

the range on rifle 4 is suppose to be 600 but it actually hits on more than 1200 range.

Is this Bug EVER going to be fixed? its been in the game forever....

does it decrease raid clear time? no?

does it only affect pvp? yes?

expect to wait. anet's clear biases are well, clear.

Can you make a video of this? If you provide a vid link then we post it to the bug forum and the engineer forum. ANET will likely see it sooner that way.

They know but dont care enough to fix

Best bug ever, I say just change the tool tip and call it fixed.

Why fix it? is it overpowered? when used at 1200 range it's easy enough to dodge.

Because it isn't working as intended. That's why.

There are quite a few things not working as intended on the engineer class, might as well ask for all of it to be fixed then and not just the things that buff the class. If that is your argument.

is the tool-tip that is wrong, rifle literately can't hit for 600 only, 1200 seems the right number

cant understand why people like to justify bugs.

Who are you decide its intent?

I mean, "Point Blank Shot" can be used at over 1500 range... for some reason.

Just same as ranger arrows fly around 2.000 or 2500 range

Because it isn't working as intended. That's why.

Yes it is a buff.

I just never would of thought that giving the enemy more time to dodge and counter play would be considered a buff..

That's not what is happening. From 600 range there is an equal amount to dodge. Now, you can be at 1500 range and still get knocked down in addition to all the prior functions of the skill. This is a buff.

You only have more time to dodge when it is used from far away , close range (0-600 range) is still the same as it used to be.

With buff I mean that the skill can now do more than it used to.

If it's not working as intended then it's a bug. Since when did we start redefining terminology randomly?

Hehe, I agree but as a rifle engi I'm biased. I would like to know if people find the skill in its current form overpowered or not compared to other skills like "Point Blank Shot" and traited "Deflecting Shot".

Stop with your dumb ideas right here bud. For barely visible no cast time knock for 3s give it twice range as it used to be? Lets double ranger lb range to have 4-5k range,for fun purposes?
